The results of the research showed that after 12 sessions the rhesus monkeys acquired a fear to the evolutionary relevant stimuli and not to the evolutionary irrelevant stimuli ; furthermore, the experiment also revealed that when they exposed monkeys to other monkeys that interacted with snakes without showing fear, this group did not acquire the fear which supports the theory of vicarious conditioning through modeling.

Rutherford showed, using the method below, that the size of the nucleus was less than about 10 < sup >− 14 </ sup > m ( how much less than this size, Rutherford could not tell from this experiment alone ; see more below on this problem of lowest possible size ).

While the Michelson – Morley experiment showed that the velocity of light is isotropic, it said nothing about how the magnitude of the velocity changed ( if at all ) in different inertial frames.

The Hershey-Chase experiment in 1952 showed that only DNA and not protein enters a bacterial cell upon infection with bacteriophage T2.

showed that we can use macroscopic oil droplets on a vibrating surface as a model of wave – particle duality — localized droplet creates periodical waves around and interaction with them leads to quantum-like phenomena: interference in double-slit experiment, unpredictable tunneling ( depending in complicated way on practically hidden state of field ) and orbit quantization ( that particle has to ' find a resonance ' with field perturbations it creates — after one orbit, its internal phase has to return to the initial state ).

An experiment that was the subject of a documentary on the National Geographic Channel's Quest For Truth: The Crucifixion, showed that a person can be suspended by the palm of the hand.

In his famous ( though possibly apocryphal ) experiment dropping balls from the Tower of Pisa, and later with careful measurements of balls rolling down inclines, Galileo showed that gravitation accelerates all objects at the same rate.

Jeffreys had a " eureka moment " in his lab in Leicester after looking at the X-ray film image of a DNA experiment at 9: 05 am on Monday 10 September 1984, which unexpectedly showed both similarities and differences between the DNA of different members of his technician's family.

Repeating the experiment for many droplets, Millikan showed that the results could be explained as integer multiples of a common value ( 1. 592 × 10 < sup >− 19 </ sup > coulomb ), the charge on a single electron.

In their experiment they showed a connection between electricity and magnetism by " starting with a long vertical wire and a magnetic needle some horizontal distance apart showing that running a current through the wire caused the needle to move " ( Parsley ).

An experiment showed that 36 % of cabbage root flies laid eggs beside cabbages growing in bare soil ( which resulted in no crop ), compared to only 7 % beside cabbages growing in clover ( which allowed a good crop ).

The Fizeau experiment to measure the speed of light in water has been viewed as " driving the last nail in the coffin " of Newton's corpuscle theory of light when it showed that light travels more slowly through water than through air.

Later analyses showed several errors and incorrect assumptions with this experiment but, serendipitously, these errors canceled out and from this flawed data Gorter and Grendel drew the correct conclusion-that the cell membrane is a lipid bilayer.

The CFEPP maintained that its experiment showed no effect and concluded that the effect was attributable to bias in Gauquelin ’ s data selection, pointing to the suggestions made by Gauquelin to the Committee for changes in their list of athletes.

The controversial Milgram experiment into obedience by Stanley Milgram showed that many people lack the psychological resources to openly resist authority, even when they are directed to act callously and inhumanely against an innocent victim.

* 1999 – Samuel L. Braunstein and collaborators showed that there was no mixed state quantum entanglement in any bulk NMR experiment.

At the end of the experiment, artificially selected C. virginica showed a 34-48 % higher survival rate.

While deploying a heat-flow experiment that had burned up with the Lunar Module Aquarius on Apollo 13 and had been attempted without success on Apollo 15, a cable was inadvertently snapped after getting caught around Young's foot.

In a now classic experiment, Simond demonstrated how a healthy rat died of plague, after infected fleas had jumped to it, from a rat which had recently died of the plague.

As a result of their rearing, Kal-El grows up to think of himself as Clark Kent, completely unaware of his alien heritage until he was well into adulthood ( the fact that the Kents found him sometime just after the Cold War meant that the Kents assumed the rocket they found him in was from an Earth-based space program-possibly that of Communist Russia-and that Clark had superhuman abilities because he was either a metahuman or some kind of genetic experiment ).

The double-slit experiment, sometimes called Young's experiment ( after Young's interference experiment ), is a demonstration that matter and energy can display characteristics of both waves and particles, and demonstrates the fundamentally probabilistic nature of quantum mechanical phenomena.

In 1902 William Bayliss and Ernest Starling performed an experiment in which they observed that acid instilled into the duodenum caused the pancreas to begin secretion, even after they had removed all nervous connections between the two.

This has been studied in psychology as fear conditioning, beginning with John B. Watson's Little Albert experiment in 1920, which was inspired after observing a child with an irrational fear of dogs.

Brooks's endless promotion of the album and the film did not seem to stir much excitement and the failure of the Chris Gaines experiment became fairly evident mere weeks after the album was released.

Shortly after this experiment Lind retired from the Navy and at first practised privately as a physician.

Trevithick built a series of locomotives after the Penydarren experiment, including one which ran at a colliery in Tyneside in northern England, where it was seen by the young George Stephenson.

A popular experiment which seems to demonstrate this involves taking one apart after it has been charged and showing that the charge is stored on the dielectric, not the plates.

The famous Michelson-Morley experiment compared the source light with itself after being sent in different directions, looking for changes in phase in a manner that could be measured with extremely high accuracy.

The publication of their result in 1887, the null result, was the first clear demonstration that something was seriously wrong with the aether concept of that time ( after Michelson's first experiment in 1881 that wasn't fully conclusive ).

Apparently, Luthor is no longer affectionate to the Boy of Steel after the event at his sister's house, and now seeing Superboy as a " failed experiment " due to using " a wrong alien DNA " to combine with his own.

The payload's MARIE radiation experiment stopped taking measurements after a large solar event bombarded the Odyssey spacecraft on October 28, 2003.

If the subject still wished to stop after all four successive verbal prods, the experiment was halted.

Similarly, Clark notes that Dr. Michael D. Swords has speculated that the Barker / Bender Men in Black case ( occurring shortly after the CIA-directed Robertson Panel issued its recommendations to spy on civilian UFO groups ) might have been a psychological warfare experiment.

Unfortunately, the spacecraft suffered technical difficulties soon after launch and fell back to Earth so the experiment was never carried out.

Denis Rousseau undertook to experiment with his own sweat after playing a handball game at the lab, and found it had identical properties.

In a very recent experiment, " delayed-choice entanglement swapping " has been used to decide whether two particles were entangled or not after they had already been measured.

Schrödinger intended his thought experiment as a discussion of the EPR article — named after its authors Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen — in 1935.
