A rather unassuming particle is playing an important role in the hunt for subatomic oddities. Similar to protons and neutrons, mesons are composed of quarks bound together by the strong nuclear force.

A collision between our Milky Way galaxy and the neighboring Andromeda galaxy, long considered inevitable, may be in question, astronomers say.

It turns out that looming collision between our Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies might not happen after all. Astronomers reported Monday that the probability of the two spiral galaxies colliding ...

A collision between the Milky Way and neighboring galaxy Andromeda is far from a sure thing; in fact, it could hinge on the flip of a cosmic coin.

Was Mina Shirakawa able to get back on the winning track Saturday night on AEW Collision? Full spoilers available from the previously taped El Paso show.

An advanced version of the famous double-slit experiment has directly measured a single photon in two places at once – or at least, that’s the claim made by a team of physicists who say these ...

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...

Illustrates how kinetic energy is transferred from one body to another through elastic collisions. Explains formulas for calculating the exchange of energy. Defines concepts concerning stored ...

Using a groundbreaking new technique, researchers have unveiled the first detailed image of a photon — a single particle of light — ever taken.

Head-On Elastic Collision between a High Energy Photon and a Low Energy Charge Particle Scattering phenomenon of a high energy photon from a nearly static electron, wherein the photon transfers a part ...
