Hot astrophysical plasmas fill the intergalactic space, and brightly shine in stellar coronae, active galactic nuclei, and supernova remnants. They contain…
Studies within the SMEC model suggest the existence of collective resonance, carrying many characteristics of a nearby proton-decay channel, which explains…
Scientists from Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (JAIST) and University of Torino (UNITO) have cooperatively clarified the nanostructure of…
A staple in every science classroom is the periodic table of elements, and for many it is their first introduction to the vast mysteries of the natural world.
New aspect of understanding
The work transfers the already superb stability of the cutting-edge laboratory atomic clocks operating at optical frequencies to microwave frequencies, which…
Now, the University of Hawai'i Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) has discovered the first known Jupiter Trojan asteroid to have sprouted a…
The model shows that vibrations, or oscillations, inside the stars can be directly measured from the gravitational-wave signal alone. This is because neutron…
Weaving this story, element by element, from roughly 140 million miles (225 million kilometers) away is a painstaking process. But scientists aren't the type…
Scientists have discovered that the transport of electronic charge in a metallic superconductor containing strontium, ruthenium, and oxygen breaks the…
Wavelike, collective oscillations of electrons known as “plasmons” are very important for determining the optical and electronic properties of metals.
Now a research team – led by Tohoku University Professor, Wataru Yashiro – has developed a new method using intense synchrotron radiation that produces higher…
In designing electronic devices, scientists look for ways to manipulate and control three basic properties of electrons: their charge; their spin states, which…
An international research team led by scientists at the University of California, Riverside, has observed light emission from a new type of transition between…
What happened yesterday and what will happen tomorrow are usually two different and quite independent matters. The past and the future of human life are not…
Entangled states are famously fragile: in most cases even a tiny disturbance will undo the entanglement. For this reason, current quantum technologies take…
