The mines helped Indian scientists strike gold in particle physics as well. It’s where top physicists, like B.V. Sreekantan, Saburo Miyake, V.S. Narasimham, and P.V. Ramanamurthy, conducted some of ...

Muons are getting a move on. In a step toward new types of particle physics experiments, scientists cooled and then accelerated a beam of muons. The subatomic particles, heavy cousins of electrons ...

An India-UK physics team has proposed a table-top experiment to probe a question that has intrigued modern physicists for decades: does gravity change when measured? The experiment will measure ...
