A routine lab experiment by a college student has turned into one of the strangest physics stories of the year, hinting that a simple mixture of oil, water, and metal particles might behave in ways ...

Today we are delving into an experiment that is a study in Thermodynamics which is defined as the branch of physical science that deals with the relations between heat and other forms of energy (such ...

A nuclear engineer reacts to an experiment that appears to challenge the second law of thermodynamics. The discussion explores the physics behind energy flow entropy and why certain results may seem ...

Clocks pervade our lives, from the cellular clocks inside our bodies to the atomic clocks that underlie satellite navigation. These atomic clocks can measure time accurately to within one second in ...

A 155-year-old thought experiment, long thought to break the laws of thermodynamics, could be made real on a large scale. Maxwell’s demon is a thought experiment first proposed by Scottish ...
