A subtle timing flash may expose the Unruh effect. The approach ties ordinary lab tools to deep quantum physics. Researchers ...

High-energy physics require ever increasing beam energies to reach the frontiers of new science. The result of this requirement is machines of ever increasing size and cost 1. Acceleration gradients ...

Dive into the acceleration analysis of a Half Atwood Machine! This video breaks down the forces, tension, and acceleration ...

NASA’s confirmation that comet 3I/ATLAS is experiencing a subtle but real non‑gravitational acceleration has turned a niche ...

Suppose you have a cylinder on an ramp and you let it start rolling down. What will be its acceleration? Great question, right? I like this because it brings in many different concepts in introductory ...

If you like science fiction, I can recommend a show for you—The Expanse. It takes place in the not-so-distant future all right here in our own solar system. There are no pew-pew lasers or ...

I was actually asked this question yesterday by one of my physics students. He was surprised to see a figure of 32 in his pre-calculus book associated with the acceleration due to gravity on earth, ...

A new type of sensor that levitates dozens of glass microparticles could revolutionize the accuracy and efficiency of sensing ...

After mentioning the Six Flags America Roller Coaster Design Contest earlier this month, I received an invitation to Physics Day at the amusement park. I had to convince my boss I didn’t intend to ...
