Photonic Computing Takes a Step Toward Fruition

Two newly developed computer chips, powered in part by light, have tackled complex computing tasks once considered out of reach for photonic systems.

KATRIN sets tighter limit on neutrino mass

New maximum for notoriously shy particle is 0.45 eV – 1 million times less than the electron

A Microscopic Step Closer to Creating Schrödinger’s Cat for Real

A new experiment shows that even messy, thermal systems can support quantum superpositions, challenging ideas about where quantum behavior ends and the classical world begins.

Underwater detector spots the most energetic neutrino yet

This rare event offers a unique opportunity to explore the universe, including probing the fundamental properties of the cosmos.

Euclid Discovers Einstein Ring Around Nearby Galaxy

The Euclid space telescope has uncovered an "Einstein ring" in an unexpected place — a galaxy we've known for more than a century.

The theoretical work of preparing for DUNE

Phenomenologists must make precise predictions for what they expect DUNE data to look like.

IceCube creates first image of Milky Way in neutrinos

Comprising thousands of detectors buried in Antarctic ice, this unique observatory produced our first view of our home galaxy using high-energy neutrinos.

Music, Physics, and the Boy I Love

A Goldmine for Particle Physicists

To be ready to evaluate the data produced by the DUNE experiment, scientists must make precise predictions for what they expect that data to look like.

The Imitator's Dilemma

Just a poem I wrote

Fun with Food Physics

Physicists from around the world do weirdly niche experiments on different foods

Is the Universe Really A Hologram?

The short answer to “Is the Universe really a hologram?” is that we do not know. Butwhat makes this idea so attractive to physicists, mathematicians and even science fiction writers? Why does this question even matter?
