A chameleon-like force that shifts its nature based on its environment could explain a major physics quandary: how the mysterious substance called dark energy is compelling the cosmos to expand faster ...

Why is pancake syrup an example of a resistive force? Some forces are called contact forces because they require objects to touch. One is tension force, found in stretched wires. Another is the force ...

Students will apply their knowledge of physical science concepts to create a lunar lander game using Scratch. They will use Vernier force and acceleration sensors to understand forces and integrate ...

Physicists have found the strongest sign yet of a fabled four of a kind. For six decades, researchers have hunted for clusters of four neutrons called tetraneutrons. But evidence for their existence ...

Researchers may be on the brink of discovering evidence of a fifth fundamental force. As far as we know, at the most basic level, the universe is made up of fundamental particles and controlled by ...

“I am one with the Force, the Force is with me.” In an hour, we will take on some of the science behind the movies – experimenting with forces and motion, using angles of incidence and refraction to ...

Roula Khalaf, Editor of the FT, selects her favourite stories in this weekly newsletter. For Michael Mann and Peter Hotez, two distinguished US scientists, nothing less than the future of human ...
