This persnickety number determines the strength of magnetic fields. It figures in everything from motors and generators to ...

What is quantum physics? Put simply, it’s the physics that explains how everything works: the best description we have of the nature of the particles that make up matter and the forces with which they ...

Researchers have previously shown that advanced ultra-intense femtosecond (10 -15 s) lasers can generate magnetic fields with strengths of up to several kilotesla. More recently, a suite of techniques ...

NASA Engineer Claims Major Discovery Of New Force In Physics, But Many Aren't Convinced The team claims to have generated 1G of thrust without any propellant. If true, it would be revolutionary.

Scientists Think Gravity Isn’t Just a Force—It’s an Untapped Quantum Field And they’re getting closer to confirming it.

Indoor record for magnetic field strength is smashed by physicists in Japan “Our new study, detailed in Scientific Reports, is a proof-of-principle that current laser technology can be used to create ...

Protons may be stretchier than physics predicts Quarks inside the particles seem to move more than they should in an electric field ...

Physicists in Switzerland are turning to a new method in the search for nature’s possible fifth force—one that might explain some of the universe’s greatest mysteries. Their work centers on ...
