2 Researchers hear puzzling new physics from graphene quartet's quantum harmonies
Using a one-of-a-kind instrument designed and built at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, an international team of researchers have "unveiled" a quartet of graphene's electron states and discovered that electrons in graphene can split up into an unexpected and tantalizing set of energy levels when exposed to extremely low temperatures and extremely high magnetic fields.

4 Rummaging for a Final Theory: Can a 1960s Approach Unify Gravity with the Rest of Physics?
Turning the clock back by half a century could be the key to solving one of science’s biggest puzzles: how to bring together gravity and particle physics. At least that is the hope of researchers advocating a back-to-basics approach in the search for a unified theory of physics. In July mathematicians and physicists met at the Banff International Research Station in Alberta, Canada, to discuss a ... Source: Scientific American

5 Aesthetics of Astronomy
When I tell people I majored in astronomy, the general reaction is one of shock and awe. Although people don't realize just how much physics it is (which scares them even more when they found out), they're still impressed that anyone would choose to major in a physical science. Quite often, I'm asked the question, [...] Source: Universe Today

9 Stephen Hawking Says God Did Not Create Universe
Stephen Hawking, the eminent British theoretical physicist, argues in his new book “The Grand Design” that God did not create the universe and the “Big Bang” was an inevitable consequence of the laws of physics. In the book, co-authored with U.S. physicist Leonard Mlodinow, Hawking says a new series of theories made a creator of the universe redundant, according to the Times newspaper which ...

10 Big Bang Was Followed By Chaos
Seven years ago Northwestern University physicist Adilson E. Motter conjectured that the expansion of the universe at the time of the big bang was highly chaotic. Now he and a colleague have proven it using rigorous mathematical arguments.The study, published by the journal Communications in Mathematical Physics, reports not only that chaos is absolute but also the mathematical tools that can be ...
