Theoretical physicist William Detmold unlocks the mysteries of quarks, gluons, and their “strong interactions” at the subatomic level. How do protons fuse to power the…
Two prominent X-ray emission lines of highly charged iron have puzzled astrophysicists for decades: their measured and calculated brightness ratios always disagree. This hinders good…
Scientists remain perplexed by the activity, with some 40 papers so far giving wildly different answers. A new research paper co-authored by a Virginia Tech…
New experimental technique with Goethe University’s reaction microscope allows ‘X-ray’ of individual molecules. For more than 200 years, we have been using X-rays to look…
An Oregon State University environmental engineering professor has solved a decades-old mystery regarding the behavior of fluids, a field of study with widespread medical, industrial,…
In experiments at the National Ignition Facility, a SLAC-led team found new details about how supernovas boost charged particles to nearly the speed of light….
Oxygen is highly reactive. It accumulates on many surfaces and determines their chemical behavior. At the Vienna University of Technology, scientists study the interaction between…
The universe mainly consists of a novel substance and an energy form that are not yet understood. This ‘dark matter’ and ‘dark energy’ are not…
Research team led by the University of Göttingen succeeds in coupling free electrons to optical resonators. When you speak softly in one of the galleries…
An international study involving Monash physicists has confirmed a new approach to measuring consciousness, potentially changing our understanding of complex neurological problems. The study published…
The ALICE collaboration has presented new results on the production rates of antideuterons based on data collected at the highest collision energy delivered so far…
A team including researchers from the Department of Chemistry at the University of Tokyo has successfully captured video of single molecules in motion at 1,600…
Blobs can wreak havoc in plasma required for fusion reactions. This bubble-like turbulence swells up at the edge of fusion plasmas and drains heat from…
Scientists have found a new method to strategically add deuterium to benzene, an aromatic compound commonly found in crude oil. When applied to the active…
As the Earth orbits the sun, it plows through a stream of fast-moving particles that can interfere with satellites and global positioning systems. Now, a…
New Type of Coupled Electronic-Structural Waves Discovered in Magnetite An international team of scientists uncovered exotic quantum properties hidden in magnetite, the oldest magnetic material…
The strongest permanent magnets today contain a mix of the elements neodymium and iron. However, neodymium on its own does not behave like any known…
