Seventy years ago, in Osmond Laboratory on Penn State's University Park campus, Erwin W. Müller, Evan Pugh Research Professor of Physics, became the first person to "see" an atom. In doing so, Müller ...

Peter Bender, Assistant Professor, Department of Physics and Applied Physics, University of Massachusetts Lowell will give a talk on “Seeing the Invisible: High-Resolution γ-Ray Spectroscopy of Rare ...

Physics, especially the part about forces and motion, often feels like a maze of confusing concepts and formulas. If you’ve ever stared at a problem about an object moving or a force acting and ...

A subatomic particle called the muon is wobbling far more than leading physics models can explain. Its unusual behavior could be evidence of a fifth force of nature or a new dimension. Scientists ...

Physics, particularly forces and motion, can be challenging. By observing everyday motion, conducting simple experiments, and understanding Newton's laws in plain language, the concepts become more ...
