WASHINGTON — Biological physics — also known as the physics of living systems — has emerged fully as a field of physics alongside other recognized fields such as astrophysics and nuclear physics, says ...

According to Alfred Nobel's will, the Nobel Prize in Physics was to go to "the person who shall have made the most important discovery or invention within the field of physics." The prize has been ...

With $15.5 million in NSF funding, the University of Chicago is launching a new cutting-edge physics center called the Center for Living Systems. The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded $76 ...

If you have trouble keeping up with the latest particle physics, we don’t blame you. The buzzy field has exploded in recent years, with a vast string of highly experimental studies — and a lot of ...

Biological physics, or the physics of living systems, has emerged fully as a field of physics, alongside more traditional fields of astrophysics and cosmology, atomic, molecular and optical physics, ...

Pushed down to a certain scale, the laws of physics seem to fall apart. Astrid Eichhorn, a leader in an area of study called asymptotic safety, thinks we just need to push a little further.

With five different areas of study—astrophysics, biophysics, particle physics, condensed matter and physics education research—Drexel’s physics PhD program gives students the flexibility to pursue ...

Physics is the study of the underlying laws and mechanisms explaining how the universe works. Most of what we do in daily life is based on a principle or law of physics—dealing with forces, motion, ...

Researchers at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Tallahassee, Florida, have pushed a palm-sized superconducting coil to 42 tesla, placing a device small enough to hold in one hand within ...
