Physicists at multiple institutions are compressing particle accelerators from facility-scale machines stretching hundreds of ...

A string of recent experiments has moved desktop-scale particle accelerators from theoretical curiosity to working prototypes ...

You're sitting in physics class, working on a traditional problem involving forces and acceleration, when you start to wonder where these terms even came from. Were they just dreamed up to bring ...

Speaker one We’ve been using Sir Isaac Newton’s theories for hundreds of years and still use his equations today. Now, how can we test Newton’s second law using equipment found in our laboratory?

Physics, particularly forces and motion, can be challenging. By observing everyday motion, conducting simple experiments, and understanding Newton's laws in plain language, the concepts become more ...
