A model probing the connection between entangled particles and wormholes in general relativity

This shows the simulation, or time evolution, of the system. t-bar is a unitless time variable. The blue curve illustrates the wormhole. The horizontal portion is the main part of…

LCLS-II ushers in a new era of science

The newly upgraded Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) X-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) at the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory successfully produced its first X-rays. The upgrade, called LCLS-II,…

Buried Ancient Roman Glass Formed Substance with Modern Applications

Newswise — Some 2,000 years ago in ancient Rome, glass vessels carrying wine or water, or perhaps an exotic perfumes, tumble from a table in a marketplace, and shatter to…
