Baseball fans and physicists share two key loves: numbers and acronyms. While fans pore over statistics on RBIs, OBPs, and ERAs, physicists analyze data from particle accelerators such as RHIC, LHC, and CESR.
Walk like a physicist, point by point, through three of the displays that highlight scientific and technical milestones from the Large Hadron ColliderÂ’'s first months of operation.
When Princeton University geoscientist Catherine Peters learned about a plan to build the world's deepest science laboratory in an abandoned gold mine in South Dakota, she saw a chance to tackle an urgent challenge: how to store carbon dioxide deep underground so it can't escape into th
In the summer of 1928, the young Ernest O. Lawrence set out across America in a Flying Cloud coupe to begin his new life at the University of California, Berkeley.
Over the years, John Zaklikowski raided his savings account to purchase every mother board, cell phone and floppy disk in sight. Now he’s used them to create artwork modeled on large-scale particle physics experiments.
Toward the end of June 1962, a virtual pantheon of modern physics descended on a tiny island just off the shores of Lake Constance, in Germany’s rolling Bavarian countryside.
