The largest nuclear fusion experiment in the world, the Joint European Torus (JET), has begun a new wave of testing this month. In a statement from the UK Atomic Energy Authority, it was announced ...
Thomas Young, born 250 years ago this week, was a polymath who made seminal contributions in fields from physics to Egyptology. But perhaps his most enduring legacy is proving Isaac Newton wrong about ...
Imperial physicists have recreated the famous double-slit experiment, which showed light behaving as particles and a wave, in time rather than space. The experiment relies on materials that can change ...

Mechanical Waves (1969)

The program explores the nature of mechanical waves, questioning how they move and what creates them. It demonstrates wave motion through various experiments, including using a slinky and a wave ...
The gravitational wave transmits an energy packet to the light wave. It should be feasible to observe both phenomena, namely, the stimulated emission and absorption of gravitons, although this would ...
