I received a lot of boo's and hisses I got for this vexer, deservingly too I might add. ... Of course, this situation is just ABOMINABLE (A bomb in a bull). ...
This week's vexer is relatively straightforward. It should take you, at most, 20 seconds to think this through. The only thing that may worry you is that I've...

This paper dated from 1999, but it is still one of the best papers to read. Martin Perl, a Nobel Prize laureate, writes in such a way that both physicists and...
Two big news this week in physics, so let's get right to them. The first one is the report in this week's Nature on the ability to measure the spin of an...
