In collaboration with international partners, researchers at the University of Stuttgart have experimentally demonstrated a ...

As data keeps exploding worldwide, scientists are racing to pack more information into smaller and smaller spaces — and a team at the University of Stuttgart may have just unlocked a powerful new ...

New home: the Muon g-2 ring sits in its detector hall at Fermilab, where it studies precession of muons. (Courtesy: Reidar Hahn/Fermilab) A long-standing discrepancy between the predicted and measured ...

The muon’s mysteries continue to leave physicists spellbound. Last year, an experiment suggested that the elementary particle had inexplicably strong magnetism, possibly breaking a decades-long streak ...

Magnets have a north pole and a south pole. Two of the same pole will repel each other, while opposites attract. Only certain materials, especially those that contain iron, can be magnets. And there’s ...

Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental phenomenon in magnetic confinement fusion as well as in space plasmas. The fingerprint of reconnection is the formation of intense current sheets and the release ...

Zoltan Fodor receives funding from DFG, BMBF. When the results of an experiment don’t match predictions made by the best theory of the day, something is off. Fifteen years ago, physicists at ...

Something genuinely strange has just happened in fundamental physics: an underground neutrino telescope in the Mediterranean ...

HANOVER, N.H. – April 28, 2022 – When magnetic field lines of opposite directions merge, they create explosions that can release massive amounts of energy. On the sun, the merging of opposing field ...
