Written in clear, engaging language, the book traces the arc from ancient Greek atomic theory to today's Standard Model of particle physics. It's part physics textbook, part history of science ...

Contrary to a common misconception, physics is not best measured by the memorization of lots of formulae. A small number of simple ideas, applied correctly, can describe a remarkable amount of the ...

The software model, named Physics Learning through Auto-encoding and Tracking Objects (PLATO), was fed the raw images from the videos, but also versions that highlighted each object in the scene.

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 ...

Many models for physics beyond the Standard Model have already been and are still being proposed. Often, they are inspired by string theory, a promising, finite theory, which includes gravity, allows ...

The standard model of particle physics is often illustrated as a simple grid showing the 17 basic particles (shown above). But an alternative way of visualising it reveals the complex rules that ...

The current working model of physics states that there are four fundamental forces of nature – gravity, electromagnetism, and the weak and strong forces between sub-atomic particles.

New measurements of a subatomic particle provide the strongest hint yet that the leading theory of quantum physics that explains our universe may be missing a fundamental element, scientists say.
