Glitches in the matrix – The Source – Washington University in St. Louis

The most interesting parts of nature are often the imperfections. Thats especially true in quantum physics, the atomic-level world where tiny flaws can make a big difference in the ways particles behave and interact

U.S., India Rapidly Expand Their Military Cooperation > U.S – Department of Defense

This is a transformational moment in the U.S.-India defense partnership, a senior Defense Department official said at the Pentagon today. "To have the world's largest democracies with some of the most innovative workers and companies working more closely together on strategic technologies and how we can leverage them for security is a natural next step in this relationship," the official said during a briefing. The United States and India are increasingly doing things in their defense partnership that people wouldn't have said was possible 20 years ago, the official said.

Physicists at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are closing in on an explanation for why we live in a universe of matter and not antimatter. Matter and antimatter are two sides of the same coin

Transforming Cell Phone Radio Frequency With Quantum Apertures – Now. Powered by Northrop Grumman.

The Rydberg sensor is a technology rooted in the fundamental structure of nature on the smallest scales that points to a complete revolution in the detection of radio waves. And it may be coming soon to that cell phone in your hand. The current cell phone radio frequency network is an engineering marvel that most of us never think twice (or even once) about except when a call gets dropped and we find ourselves talking into dead air.

The expansion of the universe could be a mirage, new theoretical … – Livescience.com

The expansion of the universe could be a mirage, a potentially controversial new study suggests. This rethinking of the cosmos also suggests solutions for the puzzles of dark energy and dark matter, which scientists believe account for around 95% of the universe's total energy and matter but remain shrouded in mystery. The novel new approach is detailed in a paper published June 2 in the journal Classical and Quantum Gravity, by University of Geneva professor of theoretical physics Lucas Lombriser.

Did physicists get the idea of "fundamental" wrong? – Big Think

If all you start with are the fundamental building blocks of nature the elementary particles of the Standard Model and the forces exchanged between them you can assemble everything in all of existence with nothing more than those raw ingredients.
