A tiny discrepancy in particle physics has loomed for decades as an exciting possible crack in one of science's most successful theories, hinting at unknown forces or quantum objects. Now, an international team led by a Penn State physicist has published ...

Physics is available to most high school students, but only about two in five students take it (White & Chu, 2026). This report examines high school physics enrollment by the type of course using data from the 2023–24 Nationwide High School Physics Survey and explores students’ pathways through physics,
