Washington DC (UPI) May 16, 2024
With summer's extreme heat and this year's hurricane season rolling into Florida next month, Gov. Ron DeSantis signed legislation Wednesday that will erase climate change from state policy effective July 1. The new law will erase the words "climate change" from state statutes and make energy a top priority to ensure "an adequate, reliable and cost-effective supply of energy for the stat

What is "time" for quantum particles

Berlin, Germany (SPX) May 20, 2024
Physicists from Darmstadt propose a new method to measure the time it takes for particles to tunnel, challenging previous experiments that suggested particles could move faster than the speed of light. This phenomenon, known as quantum tunneling, allows particles to pass through barriers even if they don't have enough energy to go over them. This effect has practical applications, such as in fla
