This year - despite being mainly obscured by the shadows of COVID-19 - has given some amazing breakthroughs in the field of Physics. Some main developments in this domain are as follows: The scientists at CERN have recently detected a rare phenomena of the God particles i.e. Higgs Boson. It was observed that a boson … Continue reading Recapping 2020’s Accomplishments in Physics

By Ramish Saeed (Team Publications) On 28th January 2021, NUST Physics and Astronomy Society (NPAS) hosted the first event of their series “A Journey Through Time” with Dr. Abdullah Sadiq. The event was held online on MS Teams because of pandemic situation and country-wide lockdown. Despite that, it was a major success. Dr. Abdullah Sadiq … Continue reading A Journey Through Time
By Nowsherwan KhanTeam Research A man once asked the question “ what will happen if I stand on a block of mass which is moving with speed of light?”. E=mc^2 was formed and the rest is history. But if you ask the same question from a common man, his answer would be ‘’this is for … Continue reading The Master of Us All
By Adil Ali Tariq (Team Publications) We might never know what is beyond this nothingness of space that harvests unknown secrets. Is there an abyss beyond this dark matter which exists all around, where the rays of light are unable to reach? The multiverse is the idea that our universe, and all that’s contained within … Continue reading Multiverse
By Nosherwan Khan (Team Research) This is a continuation of the post, Calculus: The Mathematics of Change Differentiation It’s easy to find the slope of a linear function. Suppose y = x + 2 we know that its slope is 1 and it’s inclined at an angle of 45 degrees. If you know the slope … Continue reading Calculus: The Mathematics of Change (Part-II)
By Nowsherwan Khan (Team Research) Newton's Invention We have all heard of how Newton discovered gravity after an apple fell from a tree. What we all haven’t heard is that Newton was working on the motion of the Earth and the Moon. He wanted to know more about their motion and the physical laws that … Continue reading Calculus: The Mathematics of Change
By Talha Tariq The most puzzling question about our universe is about how it came into being. Scientists and experimental data suggest that the universe originated from nothing; yes, literally from nothing. At first thought, this explanation might seem illogical, but trust me - there is a strong mathematical and experimental proof for it. But … Continue reading To Be or Not to Be – A Story of Our Own Existence
Einstein is famous for his saying that God is sophisticated but he does not play dice. Einstein dislikes the probabilistic aspect of quantum mechanics not that he dislike or disapproved the use of probability in physics, his thesis work had been on kinetic theory and statistical physics that means he was quite comfortable with the … Continue reading Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Paradox and Bell’s Inequality
Recently, researchers have discovered that they can control terahertz quantum cascade lasers in such a way that can lead to the transmission of data at the rate of 100 gigabits per second. If this is achieved then it will be almost thousand times faster than a fast Ethernet operating at 100 megabits a second. Basically, … Continue reading Generating Ultra-Fast Data Transfer using Sound and Light Waves
