— -- Christmas ham, Thanksgiving turkey and Halloween treats only go so far to explain weight gains. Nope, as another New Year rings in, we're going to have to go all the way down to the ...

When optical materials (molecules or solid-state semiconductors) are embedded in tiny photonic boxes, known as optical ...

The International Linear Collider aims to study the Higgs boson, which was discovered in 2012 at CERN's Large Hadron Collider. (Courtesy: ILC) Physicists backing Japan to build the ¥600bn ($5bn) ...

The DESY laboratory in Germany has revealed plans for a next-generation electron-positron linear collider and X-ray source that will cost $2.8bn. Edwin Cartlidge reports on the plans. An international ...

After an almost two-year shutdown for repairs and upgrades, CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is beginning to fire back up for its next phase of probing the mysteries of physics. Its newest particle ...

Linear measurement tools are essential for determining the dimensions of an object. These tools provide a way to quantify distance in a straight line. In engineering and physics, getting your ...

The outcome of the experiment wasn't what they were expecting, and the complexity of the problem underpinned the then new field of non-linear physics and paved the way for six decades of new thinking.
