Physicists resolve a long-standing puzzle over the size of a proton

Two extremely precise experiments agree with a previously shocking measurement of just how big the proton is, which may help future searches for new particles...

Physicists Discover a Strange New Kind of One-Dimensional Particle

New research suggests that in reduced dimensions, particles can defy the usual boson–fermion divide by exhibiting tunable, intermediate quantum properties. These findings hint at previously unexplored forms of matter and set the stage for experiments probing the deeper structure of the quantum world.

Physicists created an electron ‘catapult’ that moves particles at ‘extraordinary’ speed

Using a new method, physicists found a way to 'catapult' electrons across solar materials in quadrillionths of a second...

What physicists can learn from shark intestines

In 1920, inventor Nikola Tesla patented a type of pipe that he called a "valvular conduit," which was built to draw fluid in one direction without any moving parts or added energy, and has applications ranging from soft robotics to medical implants...
