Detecting electromagnetic waves in the terahertz frequency range remains a challenging problem. Researchers from the University of Cambridge, together with...
Be it magnets or superconductors, materials are known for their various properties. However, these properties may change spontaneously under extreme...
Linear analysis plays a central role in science and engineering. Even when dealing with nonlinear systems, understanding the linear response...
What goes on inside planets like Neptune and Uranus? To find out, an international team headed by the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf...
A new study has found that “diamond rain,” a long-hypothesized exotic type of precipitation on ice giant planets, could be...
Japanese and U.S. physicists have used atoms about 3 billion times colder than interstellar space to open a portal to...
Nuclear physicists studying particle collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC)—a U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science user...
The atomic nucleus is a busy place. Its constituent protons and neutrons occasionally collide, and briefly fly apart with high...
What is the connection between boron, an element in a common household cleaner, and tokamaks, ring-shaped fusion facilities that heat...
Turbulence plays a key role in our daily lives, making for bumpy plane rides, affecting weather and climate, limiting the...
Bacteria collaborate and coordinate collectively as they form a shared structure called a biofilm, such as the dental plaque on...
As the size of modern technology shrinks down to the nanoscale, weird quantum effects—such as quantum tunneling, superposition, and entanglement—become...
