A team of physicists from the University of Ottawa have developed a new theoretical model that shines new light on how ...

Techniques resulting from the work of Pierre Agostini, Ferenc Krausz and Anne L’Huillier let scientists capture the motions of subatomic particles moving at impossible speeds. By Emma Bubola and ...

The Signal Path] shows us how to recreate a classic science experiment to measure the weight of an electron. Things are ...

Using this technique, the team was able to generate electron pulses lasting just a single attosecond, allowing them to observe ultrafast electron motion that normally can’t be seen. The researchers ...

On New York's Long Island, scientists are building an ambitious machine to tease apart the mysteries held inside atomic nuclei. A major component of that system is the world's highest voltage electron ...

The 2023 Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to three researchers for their contributions to attosecond science. The prize honors Pierre Agostini of the Ohio State University, Ferenc Krausz of the ...

When an electron travels through a polar crystalline solid, its negative charge attracts the positively charged atomic cores, causing the surrounding crystal lattice to deform. The electron and ...

Energy efficiency in physics is not measured the way most people think about it. Instead of asking how much heat a process ...

Two independent lines of evidence from the world’s most powerful particle experiments are converging on the same ...
