Swirling dense metallic hydrogen dominates the interiors of Jupiter, Saturn and many extra-solar planets. Building precise models of these giant planets requires an accurate description…
An international, Yale-led research team has taken a new approach to stabilize high-power lasers: They’re fighting chaos with chaos. There has been a rapidly growing…
Unraveling the Nature of ‘Whistlers’ from Space in the Lab Scientists at the University of California, Los Angeles present new research on a curious cosmic…
The first full characterization measurement of an accelerator beam in six dimensions will advance the understanding and performance of current and planned accelerators around the…
An international research group applied theoretical physics methods to investigate the Great Pyramid’s electromagnetic response to radio waves. Scientists predicted that under resonance conditions the…
New microgravity research finds that microparticles in complex plasma behave in nonuniform ways around varying electrical fields. 400 kilometers (250 miles) above Earth, researchers examined…
The International Space Station is officially home to the coolest experiment in space. NASA’s Cold Atom Laboratory (CAL) was installed in the station’s U.S. science…
The case for an ambitious new particle accelerator to be built in the United States has just gotten a major boost. Today, the National Academies…
Professor Odintsov comments, “Possible future singularity was studied within the modified theory of gravity with the use of dynamical system variables. We showed that a…
Yale researchers have designed a new system to keep tomorrow’s quantum computers from “leaking.” Large-scale quantum computers are still years away, but it is well…
Physicists at the University of Innsbruck are on the hunt for nitrogen-containing molecules in space. Using terahertz spectroscopy, they directly measured two spectral lines for…
Theoretical physicists calculate the origin of a high-energy particle track captured by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory It was just eight years ago that the IceCube…
In the new quantum information technologies, fragile quantum states have to be transferred between distant quantum bits. Researchers at ETH have now realized such a…
Yale scientists have created a new type of silicon laser that uses sound waves to amplify light. A study about the discovery appears in the…
A new way of enhancing the interactions between light and matter, developed by researchers at MIT and Israel’s Technion, could someday lead to more efficient…
Nanoscientists at Northwestern University have developed a blueprint to fabricate new heterostructures from different types of 2-D materials. 2-D materials are single-atom layers that can…
Even after the direct measurement of their gravitational waves, there are still mysteries surrounding black holes. What happens when two black holes merge, or when…
A quantum internet promises completely secure communication. But using quantum bits or qubits to carry information requires a radically new piece of hardware – a…
