Experimentalists

The Higgs field solved a huge question in theoretical particle physics, and the Higgs boson was a tantalising target that experimentalists could hunt for in order to tie theory to reality.

Local singer-songwriter Henry Joseph IV has spent years with somber indie rockers the Record Low and rambunctious rock experimentalists Treasurer, but lately he's focused on solo folk-pop project Perma Cough.

The next step, the authors said, is for experimentalists to see if the material works in the real world as well as predicted.

Although chaotic planetary motion had not been observed, experimentalists had encountered turbulence in fluid motion and nonperiodic oscillation in radio circuits without the benefit of a theory to explain what they were seeing.

Background Since the 20th century, the work of physics research has been divided between theorists and experimentalists (see scientific method ).

If it is found to be contradicted by observation — well, these experimentalists do bungle things sometimes.
