How does entropy work?

Explore entropy in action with a clear experiment showing how systems naturally move toward disorder. See physics in motion!
As far as particles of light are concerned, the collective is more important than the individual. When they get to decide ...
In a metal like copper, however, the outer electrons swim around freely and are shared by all the atoms. That’s why ...

On 14 November, the Faculty of Physics offers quantum research to touch, participate in and marvel at. From family lectures to science slams: guests ...
The theoretical physicist and best-selling author finds inspiration in politics and philosophy for rethinking space and time.
Virtual particles exploit the natural fuzziness of the subatomic world, where if these ephemeral particles live briefly enough, they can also briefly borrow their energy from empty space. The haziness ...
A team of physicists from the University of Innsbruck and Harvard University has proposed a fundamentally new way to generate laser light: a laser ...
