(via Minute Physics) This video is about using particle accelerators as part of the solar panel silicon wafer manufacturing process. The accelerators embed protons into the wafer crystals, allowing ...

It started out so small, dense and hot that the building blocks of our reality atoms couldn't even form. Yet the ingredients of atoms, protons and neutrons were broken down into their most fundamental ...

Plasma is a state of matter that emerges when a gas is heated to sufficiently high temperatures, prompting some electrons to ...

Physics' big announcement had more in common with a leaky product launch than the serious business of re-writing the science books. But slack asset management aside, it's official: a new boson has ...

In this video from the Intel HPC Developer Conference at SC15, Prabhat from UC Berkeley presents: High Performance Clustering for Trillion Particle Simulations. “Modern Cosmology and Plasma Physics ...

The film explores the dual nature of light, demonstrating its behavior as both a wave and a particle through an experiment involving a double slit. It shows how light creates an interference pattern, ...

We only recently figured out where cosmic rays are coming from. Cern's Large Hadron Collider routinely collides particles at energies equivalent to a fraction of a second after the Big Bang, but a ...

A mistakenly leaked video from Europe's CERN particle-physics center reports that a new subatomic particle has been observed at the Large Hadron Collider, in the range where the long-sought Higgs ...

An innovative algorithm for detecting collisions of high-speed particles within nuclear fusion reactors has been developed, inspired by technologies used to determine whether bullets hit targets in ...

Watch the PAX East Developer Walkthrough Video for Particle Hearts, a puzzle adventure game developed by Underwater Fire. Players will explore a world made of particles and make use of special ...

CERN wants to go super-sized. The particle physics lab near Geneva in Switzerland has just unveiled its plans for a replacement for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The news: CERN has released a ...
