Research led by the University of Amsterdam has demonstrated that elusive radiation coming from black holes can be studied by...
Spin glasses are alloys formed by noble metals in which a small amount of iron is dissolved. Although they do...
“Dwell fatigue” is a phenomenon that can occur in titanium alloys when held under stress, such as a jet engine’s...
A team of researchers at the MPQ has pioneered the integration of erbium atoms with special optical properties into a...
There’s an awkward, irksome problem with our understanding of nature’s laws which physicists have been trying to explain for decades....
Today, astronomers seek to observe the faintest and most distant objects possible. Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs), with apertures in the...
Structural colors result from interactions between light and nanostructures. Engineering structural colors is a promising, rapidly emerging research field. Compared...
