Physics has changed in strange ways. Theoreticians can now do without experimental confirmation while experimentalists find it ethical to work in absolute...

According to Brian Greene, if the muon is "sitting in front of you", it will self-destruct very quickly. Muons moving at high speed live longer, as predicted...

Consider a light source emitting a series of pulses equally distanced from one another. A stationary observer (receiver) measures the frequency of the pulses:...

"Back in 2012, Wilczek came up with a tantalising idea. He wondered if, in the same way that a crystal breaks symmetry in space, it would be possible to create...

Physics Girl (4:30): "One last question. What's happening to the clocks during the period of acceleration? We still get time dilation, but we have to use a...

"The attempt to understand the Second Law of thermodynamics occupies a central role in the foundations of physics: not only is it of great importance in and of...

The Kepler telescope is discovering many planets by searching for changes in a star's brightness when a planet transits across the face of a star. However,...

"The simplest version of the problem involves a garage, with a front and back door which are open, and a ladder which, when at rest with respect to the garage,...

"In December 2015, a third event happened, and that one passed the confidence test. Thus during a roughly four-month detection run, LIGO picked up two certain...

"A question arises: If Ship A and Ship B both think each other's time is moving slower, who will have aged more if they decided to meet up? With a more...

Violations of the second law of thermodynamics would be regarded as commonplace if it were not for misleading education:...

If we assume that the speed of falling light varies like the speed of ordinary falling bodies (in the gravitational field of the Earth the acceleration of...

Consider a light source emitting a series of pulses equally distanced from one another. A stationary observer (receiver) measures the frequency of the...

In 1905 Einstein derived, from his two postulates, the conclusion that "the clock moved from A to B lags behind the other which has remained at...

Of the following two statements one is true, the other is false of course: Statement 1: The speed of light varies with the speed of the light source....

Normally, Einsteinians are practitioners of doublethink - they both reject and worship some concept so that the gullible world can come to the conclusion that...

Systems converting heat into work at constant temperature, e.g. that of the surroundings, are commonplace, but, if they can do this CYCLICALLY, they violate...
