- Day at Lagoon gives kids happy taste of physics (Deseret Morning News)
FARMINGTON The carrot-and-stick approach to studying science was at work Friday when Utah State University hosted Physics Day at Lagoon.- Avon View students win physics Pringle Challenge at Acadia (The Hants Journal)
By Wendy Elliott Avon View High students have won the Canada Post Pringle Challenge at the Acadia University physics department's recent Olympics...- LHS physics students win state title (Ludington Daily News)
Ludington High School’s advanced physics students won Michigan’s Physics Bowl title again this year, repeating the championship they won in 2007.- Physics Professor Demonstrates Lasing Without Inversion (LWI) (Newswise)
A Western Illinois University physics professor has discovered a way to understand lasing without inversion, which will allow the generation of X-ray and gamma-ray laser light without needing large energy input to begin with. This will also allow for precise control of the behavior of a quantum system leading to its application in an important upcoming area of information processing known as ...- Iran's Yasaman Farzan receives IUPAP Young Scientist Prize in Particle Physics (Payvand Iran News)
The International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP) has chosen Dr Yasaman Farzan of IPM as the winner of the IUPAP Young Scientist Prize in Particle Physics in 2008.- Intel International Science & Engineering Fair: The physics roundup [Sciam Observations Blog] (Scientific American)
Choosing which projects to highlight from the 75 physics exhibits here at the Intel International Science & Engineering Fair was tough, but we waded through high-energy protons, the kinetic behavior of liquid marbles, chaotic double pendula, and negative refractive indices.

They say the best way to master a subject, is to teach it. That is the plan of some Lima West Middle School seventh graders who are currently learning about the physics of sports. The students are taking their ideas out of the classroom this week and into the gymnasium at a local elementary school.- Study Explores Physics of Wrinkling, Folding (Newswise)
Scientists at the University of Chicago and the University of Santiago in Chile have explained, for the first time, the physics that governs how thin materials at scales millions of times different in thickness make the transition from wrinkles into folds under compression.- At Ten, Dark Energy "Most Profound Problem" in Physics (National Geographic)
A decade after its discovery, scientists are struggling to pin down the properties of the "dark side" of gravity and unravel a mystery that accounts for about 74 percent of the universe.- Physics friction (Melrose Free Press)
Melrose High School physics students and their parents packed the room at Tuesday night’s School Committee meeting, citing deficiencies in the physics department the entire school year that have left students feeling unprepared for Advanced Placement (AP) classes and tests next year and imploring the School Committee to immediately provide additional help to make up for what one student called ...
