Stories by Gerald Feinberg

Efforts to detect such particles, named tachyons, have yielded only negative results. Contrary to common belief, however, their existence would not be inconsistent with the theory of relativity

Presenting an issue about light: how modern developments such as lasers and the elucidation of the wave particle nature of light flow from the great tradition of optics that began with Newton

The extraordinary particles created in accelerators are important clues to the nature of matter. They obscure the fact, however, that the matter of ordinary experience consists of only three particles

Modern physics rests largely on classical laws of the constancy of such quantities as electric charge. The extension of physics into new realms, however, requires that these laws be re-examined
