Physics is beautiful in its ideas and in the people who pursue them across borders. What better, then, than for 16 laboratories across Asia, Europe and North America to throw open their doors for a ...

Symmetry chats with scientists and engineers about doing important work in physics without a doctoral degree. Ronald Richards’ father was a mechanical engineer for Ford Motor Co., and as a child in ...

While condensed matter physics is the largest subfield of physics, there still exist few popular science books on the topic. Condensed matter physicist Dr. Felix Flicker set out to change that.
