The physics coordinator for the result was Scott Haselschwardt, who received his Ph.D. from UCSB in 2018 and is now an assistant professor at the University of Michigan. Neutrons, subatomic particles ...

Students at the College studied physics with the Giovanetti lab last summer in beautiful L’Aquila, Italy. This international collaborative project is dedicated to the detection of dark matter, and ...

Nobel laureate Dr. George Smoot, who is famous for his research into the origins of the universe and for finding the background radiation that finally unraveled the Big Bang theory, has died at the ...

Determining the nature of dark matter, the invisible substance that makes up most of the mass in our universe, is one of the greatest puzzles in physics. New results from the world's most sensitive ...

The Grace radiotherapy system delivers conventional X-ray radiation therapy to patients in the upright position ...

PLDR radiation was pioneered at Fox Chase by Chang-Ming Charlie Ma, Ph.D., FASTRO, Vice Chair of Radiation Oncology and Director of Radiation Physics. He developed much of the methodology for ensuring ...

Nobel laureate Dr. George Smoot, who conducted groundbreaking research into the origins of the universe during a long career at the University of California, Berkeley, and the Lawrence Berkeley ...

Could black holes help explain the origins of high-energy cosmic radiation? The universe is filled with many forms of radiation and particles that can be detected here on Earth. Among them are photons ...

Some things we see in space appear to outpace light. Now we are learning to harness these bizarre optical illusions to understand the mysteries of neutron stars, gamma ray bursts and more ...

Astronomers are trying to determine what caused a series of gamma-ray bursts, the most powerful explosions in the universe, to occur in a single day.

The last gasp of a primordial black hole may be the source of the highest-energy "ghost particle" detected to date, a new MIT study proposes.
