Ultrathin structures that can bend, focus, or filter light, metasurfaces are reshaping how scientists think about optics.

This is the second article in a two-part series examining teaching techniques in college-level physics courses. The first part, which was printed in yesterday's paper, examined some of the bold leaps ...

The European Space Agency’s (ESA) Integral gamma-ray observatory has provided results that will dramatically affect the search for physics beyond Einstein. It has shown that any underlying quantum ...

Simulating physics is central to robotics: before a robot ever moves in the real world, much of its learning, testing, and control happens in a virtual environment. But traditional simulators often ...

Conducted in the mid-1980s, their research demonstrated that quantum mechanics can have practical applications on a human ...
