Last week, I introduced Emmy Noether, an extraordinary figure in the fields of mathematics and physics. To understand Noether ...

Researchers have created quantum control techniques that can make a system appear to run backward in time. By precisely managing quantum measurements, they can reshape the system's arrow of time and ...

Retractions carry a heavy meaning in research. They often point to flawed data, ethical breaches or serious publishing ...

Physics is the study of the underlying laws and mechanisms explaining how the universe works. Most of what we do in daily life is based on a principle or law of physics—dealing with forces, motion, ...

In the pantheon of modern physics, few figures can match the quiet authority of Gerard ’t Hooft. The theoretical physicist, now a professor emeritus at Utrecht University in the Netherlands, has spent ...

Students heading to class in the Duane Physics and Astrophysics building now have a glimpse into the world’s largest particle detectors in a new mural painted by Veronica Keff. A senior in ...

College professors these days face an ever-higher bar to grab the attention of their students, forced to compete with the stimuli of smartphones and laptops in large lecture halls. But when your ...

In the 1920s, when quantum mechanics was young, physicists Jane Dewey and Laura Chalk performed some of the first experimental tests of the theory, based on a phenomenon called the Stark effect. Later ...

Build an individualized career with a physics foundation in Michigan Tech's unique program at an R1 flagship technological university. You'll examine the building blocks of existence, from the ...

For student learning outcomes, please see wiu.edu/provost/learningoutcomes. The science of Physics explores the basic properties of matter, energy, and their mutual ...
