Was Penrose Right? New Evidence For Quantum Effects In The Brain
New ReviewNobel laureate Roger Penrose is widely held to be one of the most brilliant living physicists for his wide-ranging work from black holes to cosmology. And then there’s his idea about how consciousness is caused by quantum processes. Most...

Can a Particle Be Neither Matter Nor Force?
New ReviewAll particles belong to two large groups: fermions like protons and electrons make everything we consider "matter", while bosons like photons and gluons transmit the fundamental forces. And that about covers the universe: matter moving...

We Turned the Mediterranean Into One Big Particle Physics Experiment
In order to study the smallest particles in the known universe, physicists have to build incredibly huge detectors. One of them, currently under construction, stretches across the Mediterranean from France to Greece. And despite being...

The World’s Smallest Particle Accelerator Doesn’t Do Anything
You may think of particle accelerators as massive underground tunnels like the Large Hadron Collider. But a new generation of accelerators are small enough to fit on a coin. Now the challenge is making them useful. Hosted by: Savannah...

No, Space Doesn’t Kill You Like That
Hollywood (and other fictional media) loves to show people dying in outer space. And it has several go-to causes of death, on a sliding scale of accuracy. But it turns out, reality has some ways to kill you that are far stranger than...

TED-Ed: Could we build a miniature sun on Earth? | George Zaidan
Stars have cores hot and dense enough to force atomic nuclei together, forming larger, heavier nuclei in a process known as fusion. In this process, the mass of the end products is slightly less than the mass of the initial atoms. But...

This Light is a Different Kind of Invisible
Dark matter's most famous trait is its inability to interact with light, the particle version of which we call "photons". But in their attempts to figure out exactly what dark matter is, some scientists have proposed "dark photons".
