Music to their ears: One site option for the European Laboratory for Gravitational and Atom-interferometric Research (ELGAR) is the Laboratoire Souterrain à Bas Bruit in southern France. (Courtesy: CC ...

A recent preprint claims that we may someday be able to create gravitational waves in a lab. Through the use of “twisted” light, we could create powerful, high-frequency waves in a controlled setting.

Nick is a PhD student currently investigating wave propagation in aperiodic and non-Euclidean media with a focus on networks and lattice structures. Previously, he obtained his BA in physics at ...

Quantum physics tells us about the properties and behaviors of atomic and subatomic particles. But scientists have long held the belief that the rules that govern the microscopic world should also be ...
