Quantum physicist Mario Krenn remembers sitting in a café in Vienna in early 2016, poring over computer printouts, trying to make sense of what MELVIN had found. MELVIN was a machine-learning ...

In 1971, graduate student Stuart Freedman and postdoctoral fellow John Clauser took over a room in the sub-basement of Birge Hall at the University of California, Berkeley, and built an experiment ...

In an article published in 2002 in the journal Physics Letters B, my Ph.D. student Maurizio Piai (now Professor of Physics at Swansea University, Swansea, UK) and I proposed an experiment with reactor ...

Physics experiments have changed the world irrevocably, altering our reality and enabling us to take gigantic leaps in technology. From ancient times to now, here's a look at some of the greatest ...

Learning from an anomaly during the first BOLT-1A flight, the successful BOLT-1B follow-on flight experiment collected ...

No one can question the impact of science on human civilization, and the importance of experimentation in science is equally undeniable. Some experiments confirm what we already know, others suggest a ...
