Ok, as I understand it we have no way to determine the speed which we are moving at in an absolute sense.<BR><BR>We can say "We are moving 20 miles per hour in the car relative to the road" or "The ...

Cold atoms could also potentially measure much lower vacuum pressures than ion gauges can. The current lowest pressure they’ve reliably measured is around 10 -9 Pa, and NIST scientists are working on ...

Most of us intuitively feel that reality ought to exist just fine on its own when we aren’t looking. If a tree falls in a forest when no one is around to hear the crash, the air still vibrates with ...

Scientists reveal unprecedented ability to "side-step" the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle by simultaneously measuring ...

WashU physicists build quantum sensors in boron nitride sheets to study magnetism and stress under extreme pressure.

He added that the team learned the behaviour of their system in 15 minutes. A comparable classical method would take around 20 million years. The experiment took place in the basement labs at DTU ...

The Royal Swedish Academy of Science has awarded the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physics to Pierre Agostini, Ferenc Krausz and Anne L'Huillier for work that's "given humanity new tools for exploring the world ...
