Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Ames Laboratory and collaborators at Brookhaven National Laboratory and the University of Alabama at Birmingham have discovered a…
Normally the word “chaos” evokes a lack of order: a hectic day, a teenager’s bedroom, tax season. And the physical understanding of chaos is not…
Multidisciplinary research team develops new strategy for validating computer simulations. Computer simulations hold tremendous promise to accelerate the molecular engineering of green energy technologies, such…
Put to the test, impact from rotational deceleration causes tremendous egg yolk deformation. What causes brain concussions? Is it direct translational or rotational impact? This…
Beam-driven wakefield acceleration approaches are promising candidates for future large-scale machines, including X-ray free electron lasers and linear colliders, as they have the potential to…
Real-life applications like magnetometry or quantum gyroscope typically involve precise measurement on multiple parameters. How to achieve the ultimate precision limits simultaneously is a long…
Nature study: research team from the University of Bonn gains insights into novel quantum phenomena. They are as thin as a hair, only a hundred…
Researchers at Paderborn University have developed a new method of distance measurement for systems such as GPS, which achieves more precise results than ever before….
What Is Radioactivity? Radioactivity is the release of energy from the decay of the nuclei of certain kinds of atoms and isotopes. Atomic nuclei consist…
Scientists tame photon-magnon interaction. Working with theorists in the University of Chicago’s Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering, researchers in the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE)…
There are things in life that can be predicted reasonably well. The tides rise and fall. The moon waxes and wanes. A billiard ball bounces…
Liquids are ubiquitous in nature — from the water that we consume daily to superfluid helium which is a quantum liquid appearing at temperatures as…
Researchers say they may have found proof of theorized axions, and possibly dark matter, around a group of neutron stars. A new study, led by…
Mollusks build shells to protect their soft tissues from predators. Nacre, also known as the mother of pearl, has an intricate, highly regular structure that…
By adding some magnetic flair to an exotic quantum experiment, physicists produced an ultra-stable one-dimensional quantum gas with never-before-seen “scar” states – a feature that…
Researchers develop the first nanomaterial that demonstrates “photon avalanching;” finding could lead to new applications in sensing, imaging, and light detection. Researchers at Columbia Engineering…
Led by the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, a new study clears up a discrepancy regarding the biggest contributor of unwanted background signals…
