Anomalous magnetic dipole moment
(Preview)
In quantum electrodynamics, the anomalous magnetic moment of a particle is a contribution of effects of quantum mechanics, expressed by Feynman diagrams with loops, to the magnetic moment of that particle. (The "magnetic moment", also called "magnetic dipole moment", i...

European Synchrotron Radiation Facility
(Preview)
Exploring the last white spot on Earth Scientists will soon be exploring matter at temperatures and pressures so extreme that the conditions can only be produced for microseconds using powerful pulsed lasers. Matter in such states is present in the Earth's liquid iron core, 2500 kilometres benea...

Electromagnetic Wave Model
(Preview)
Almost a decade ago Mr. McGrath began a business project that would eventually lead to developing an engineering-based model of quantum mechanics. The model provides a novel and simplified approach to explaining the formation and underlying mechanics of mass particles, field generation, and t...

Diamond synchrotron
(Preview)
The biggest science facility built in the UK for 30 years has produced its first "synchrotron" light beam.
At 2.00am on Tuesday 30th May 2006, Diamond's accelerator team achieved stored beam in the 561.6 metre Storage Ring, which in turn allowed the first observation of synchrotron light.
