On January 12, 1896, three students at Davidson College experimented with x-rays. On January 6, 1896, the Associated Press announced that German physicist Wilhelm Roentgen had discovered a new form of ...
College professors these days face an ever-higher bar to grab the attention of their students, forced to compete with the stimuli of smartphones and laptops in large lecture halls. But when your ...
By feeding students the mysteries and wonder of modern physics, Don Lincoln hopes to ‘blow their minds.’ ...
Physics is supposed to be predictable. Drop a ball, and gravity pulls it down. Heat water, and it boils. Light travels in straight lines. Yet throughout history, scientists have encountered ...
New results from the MicroBooNE experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory deal a blow to a theoretical particle known as the sterile neutrino. For more than two decades, this proposed fourth ...

In a first, scientists have shown that they can send light through “slits in time” in time. The new experiment is a twist on a 220-year-old demonstration, in which light shines through two slits in a ...
The experimental neutrino physics group is involved in three experiments around the world, described below. Our research involves the study of fundamental subatomic particles called neutrinos. In ...
At the heart of physics is experimental and theoretical research that extends our knowledge of the universe, and paves the way for new applications of that knowledge. Luther Physics Department faculty ...
