If you don't have any idea what antimatter is, you don't have to feel bad - the brightest minds in the world have only recently begun to understand what it is and how it works. Hank gives us the run down on what we know about antimatter,...

No one has ever conclusively seen a proton turn into other, lighter particles, but fifty million liters of water in Japan might change that and our ideas about subatomic particles forever.

You might think that quantum physics was discovered because of some super complicated electron behavior or something, but it was actually invented to explain ovens.

You might be benefiting from the weird units you've never heard every time you put on your shoes or read about dark matter.

What is light? That is something that has plagued scientists for centuries. It behaves light a wave... and a particle... what? Is it both? In this episode of Crash Course Physics, Shini introduces to the idea of Quantum Mechanics and how...

In this, THE FIRST EPISODE of Crash Course Physics, your host Dr. Shini Somara introduces us to the ideas of motion in a straight line. She talks about displacement, acceleration, time, velocity, and the definition of acceleration. Also,...

In this episode SciShow Space we talk about the aether...which hasn't been proven.

When scientists are planning missions, they sometimes have to take into account the fact that the light from the Sun pushes on the spacecraft. But with solar sails, they can also use that pressure to propel the craft along.

Recently, humanity filled the periodic table up to atomic number 118, which nicely rounds out that row. But are we done yet? Have we discovered all of the different elements? And what is an "island of stability?"

Particle physics isn't simple, but it was much more confusing before physicists knew about quarks.

The weak force has been causing trouble for a century, ruining everything physicists thought was true. But it might actually be responsible for your very existence.

Physics investigates why the universe behaves the way that it does, and today, Hank tells us about the three physics experiments that he thinks were the most awesome at helping us understand how the universe works.

Researchers have made some unexpected readings of mysterious particles called muons, which may make us reexamine the Standard Model in physics.

The story picks up where we left off last time, with Einstein writing the president of his new homeland, the United States, urging him to build a nuclear weapon before Hitler. This is the tale of the most destructive force humans have...

Hank reports on some new discoveries: one which points towards the existence of dark matter with the "majorana particle" and another, which points towards the existence of life on Mars. Exciting stuff!

Is the Time Stone in the Eye of Agamotto from Marvel's Dr. Strange based on real science? Yes! The Time Stone is in fact an example of an object that physicists have recently dreamed up and actually made, called a...

What is the God Particle? How does the Higgs Boson work? If you were a fish, would you know that the entire world in which you existed was contained in a substance called water? You probably wouldn’t know it because,...

Holographic Universe? Are we living on a hologram? Or inside a black hole? Our perception is that we live in a three dimensional world. What if our three dimensions, can be equally represented on a two...

Physicists know how to use the equations of quantum mechanics to predict things, but don't really understand what is fundamentally going on.



The primary challenge is that according to the...

Seven eminent physicists, including 3 Nobel Laureates, provide real-world examples of the relevance of TOK (Theory of Knowledge) concepts in their research. This interdisciplinary TOK Sampler explores different aspects of the...

“What Is a Physicist?” introduces Albert Einstein, Sir Isaac Newton, and the study of physics.

The quantum mole software, developed at University College London, helps computer companies select cleaner gases for chip etching processes. It allows users to study the interaction between electrons and various molecules, aiding in the...

Robert J. Oppenheimer, born on April 22, 1904, is known as the father of the atomic bomb. Oppenheimer was awarded a PhD in theoretical physics and was interested in the emerging field of quantum physics. As a scientist at the University...

The lowest temperature theoretically possible, at which particles would stop vibrating.
