Two ghostlike particles, neutrinos and photons, are emerging as unlikely combatants in a quiet revolution in physics. New ...

[This is a guest post by David L. Morgan, who is an assistant professor of physics and astronomy at Eugene Lang College in Manhattan. -- JBJ] One of the first things I teach the students in my physics ...

A team of computer scientists and nuclear physicists is developing a memory management framework to help speed up physics calculations on supercomputers. This diagram shows the optimizations made by ...

Recently, I watched a fellow particle physicist talk about a calculation he had pushed to a new height of precision. His tool? A 1980s-era computer program called FORM. Particle physicists use some of ...
