It’s a warm July day when I meet Fabian Kislat in his lab. Kislat, an experimental astrophysicist and a professor at the University of New Hampshire, is dressed for the summer weather: T-shirt, shorts ...
How would you go about determining absolute zero? Intuitively, it seems like you’d need some complicated physics setup with lasers and maybe some liquid helium. But as it turns out, all you need is ...
The LIGO gravitational wave observatory in the United States is so sensitive to vibrations it can detect the tiny ripples in space-time called gravitational waves. These waves are caused by colliding ...
TORONTO, Ontario (CTV Network) — Scientists have broken the record for the coldest temperature ever recorded in a lab, achieving a temperature just trillionths of a degree away from absolute zero by ...
This article was published in Scientific American’s former blog network and reflects the views of the author, not necessarily those of Scientific American Under a tangled mess of pipes, tubes, gauges, ...
Artists Felicia LeRoy and Carolyn Spears work with molten glass, some of the hottest material on earth, yet their recent exhibit “Absolute Zero” connotes the coldest temperature possible. “Absolute ...
