In new studies published in Physical Review Letters and a special issue of Classical and Quantum Gravity on September 14, a team of researchers present the most precise test yet of the Weak ...

In 2016, a team of French physicists sent an ultra-sensitive, drag-free satellite called MICROSCOPE into space to study a 100-year old theory of Einstein’s that could change everything we know about ...

Researchers have developed a low-cost, origami-inspired microscope called the Foldscope. The device costs just pennies to produce and can provide up to 2,000x magnification. Scientists and educators ...

A new atom holography microscope uses a focused SEM beam to map 3D atomic arrangements in nanoscale regions with about 0.1 angstrom accuracy.
