A new quantum physics experiment just lent evidence to a mind-boggling idea that was previously limited to the realm of theory, according to the MIT Technology Review — that under the right conditions ...
If a tree falls in the forest and someone is there to hear it, does it make a sound? Perhaps not. As macroscopic observers, we can say three things about reality. If you see an event happening, it ...
Some physicists are uncomfortable with the idea that all individual quantum events are innately random. This is why many have proposed more complete theories, which suggest that events are at least ...
A joint analysis of the content of experiments in the area of quantum physics and the function of human mind makes it possible to demonstrate that an object-based model of reality formed at the level ...
Can two versions of reality exist at the same time? Physicists say they can — at the quantum level, that is. Researchers recently conducted experiments to answer a decades-old theoretical physics ...
“WHAT fraction of what you know that is important is physics?” Richard A. Muller strikes an unexpected note with this question towards the end of his book Now. A veteran of particle physics and ...
Almost anytime physicists announce that they’ve discovered a new particle, whether it’s the Higgs boson or the recently bagged double-charm tetraquark, what they’ve actually spotted is a small bump ...
Peter Evans receives funding from the Australian Research Council and the Foundational Questions Institute. The Nobel Prize in physics this year has been awarded “for experiments with entangled ...
This spring, physics professor Marcelo Gleiser is leading PHYS 82.01, “Question Reality!” for the first — and last — time in person. Gleiser said this is his last term teaching at the College.
