The behavior of so-called “strange metals” has long puzzled scientists—but a group of researchers at the University of Toronto may...
Hidden stripes in a crystal could help scientists understand the mysterious behavior of electrons in certain quantum systems, including high-temperature...
Diamond material is of great importance for future technologies such as the quantum internet. Special defect centers can be used...
Solid-state lithium-sulfur batteries offer the potential for much higher energy densities and increased safety, compared to conventional lithium-ion batteries. However,...
Researchers have developed a way to create photonic time crystals, and they have shown that these bizarre, artificial materials amplify...
An innovative new technique to detect and characterize molecules with greater precision has been proposed, paving the way for significant...
Cosmologists have found new evidence for the standard model of cosmology—this time, using data on the structure of galaxy clusters....
Recreating the double-slit experiment that proved the wave nature of light in time, instead of space
Imperial physicists have recreated the famous double-slit experiment, which showed light behaving as particles and a wave, in time rather...
When atomic nuclei such as gold or lead nuclei collide at high energy in particle colliders, they can produce quark–gluon...
Materials typically conduct electricity or insulate against it—so experimental and theoretical physicists have been captivated by a compound called samarium...
In a demonstration that promises to help scale up quantum computers based on tiny dots of silicon, RIKEN physicists have...
End-of-dry-season CO2 pulses recur each year in the atmosphere above the Australian continent, a discovery made by an international research...
