Einstein proposed three tests of his own tests of general relativity when he first published it in 1915: the precession of Mercury’s orbit, the bending…

Hafele–Keating Experiment is so tampered with that it could be considered fraudulent. It was a test of the theory of relativity. In October 1971, Hafele…

Franck–Hertz Experiment is demonstrated the existence of excited states in mercury atoms, helping to confirm the quantum theory which predicted that electrons occupied only discrete,…

Double-Slit Experiment belongs to a general class of “double path” experiments, in which a wave is split into two separate waves that later combine into…

Davisson-Germer Experiment is the first measurement of the wavelengths of electrons. It is a physics experiment conducted by American physicists Clinton Davisson and Lester Germer…

Cavendish Experiment used a torsion balance device to attract lead balls together, measuring the torque on a wire and equating it to the gravitational force…

Experimental Physics is in the areas of fluid dynamics, molecular physics and atmospheric physics. It is the category of disciplines and sub-disciplines in the field…

Scientific Control is a part of the scientific method. It is an experiment or observation designed to minimize the effects of variables other than the…

Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) is a study in which people are allocated at random to receive one of several clinical interventions. It is a type…

Safety Protocol is a system of rules that explain the correct conduct and procedures to be followed in formal situations. It is desirable to standardize…

Clinical Trial is one of the final stages of a long and careful research process. The process often begins in a laboratory, where scientists first…

Theorem is an embodiment of some general principle that makes it part of a larger theory. It is a logical consequence of the axioms. The…
