To make fusion energy a viable resource for the world’s energy grid, researchers need to understand the turbulent motion of...
The world we experience is governed by classical physics. How we move, where we are, and how fast we’re going...
Is it in a liquid phase or a ‘glassy’ phase? This question has been the subject of intense debate as...
A new, Yale-led study suggests the 21st century will see an expansion of hurricanes and typhoons into mid-latitude regions, which...
Most scientists would blanch at being labeled a spin doctor. But when it comes to Evgeny Tsymbal, Ding-Fu Shao and...
The three-body problem is one of the oldest problems in physics: It concerns the motions of systems of three bodies—like...
By confirming certain light-scattering dynamics first proposed a half-century ago, University of Nebraska–Lincoln physicists are casting fresh eyes on the...
Physicists at the University of Queensland have shed light upon how tiny whirlpools (vortices) get stuck to obstacles in superfluids....
