Scientist who hunts mysterious ghost particles in the Antarctic ice wins Nobel Prize for physics
Belgian-born scientist Francis Halzen won the Nobel Prize in physics Tuesday for his efforts to demystify a rare group of neutrinos, tiny cosmic particles that researchers believe offer clues to how the universe evolved.
Philip Ball’s entertaining biography is a guide to both the life of the Danish physicist and the mind-boggling quantum science that he, alongside Einstein, did much to advance
Astrophysicist Jorge Hernández Bernal first spotted the cloud in an otherwise clear sky in 2018. Images by the European Space Agency's Mars Express Visual Monitoring Camera, aka the Mars webcam, captured the strange phenomenon as the Red Planet's southern hemisphere experienced spring.
WKU Department of Physics & Astronomy will host “A Nightmare on Physics Avenue III” from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. CDT on Tuesday, October 27, in Kelly Thompson Hall on WKU’s campus.
Belgian prodigy Laurent Simons, who earned a PhD in quantum physics at 15, is now pursuing a second doctorate exploring AI, medicine and whole-body imaging.
Biological physics is a branch of physics that deals with systems of a biological nature, from the scale of biological molecules to whole organisms and ecosystems. Biological physics typically uses quantitative physical approaches to address biological questions similar to those studied in biochemistry and molecular biology.

Did physics secretly bring back AEther?
This video examines whether modern physics has revived the 19th-century idea of the “aether” — the invisible medium once thought to carry light — and explains how contemporary theories changed our view of space and particles.
