From the earliest days of our solar system's history, collisions between astronomical objects have shaped the planets and changed the course of their…
Now, for the first time, a team of NASA scientists has analyzed dozens of TGFs launched by the largest and strongest weather systems on the planet: tropical…
The sensing capability of a biosensor is determined by the resolution of the sensor and the movement and reaction rate of molecules. Many research groups in…
The region is home to a striking mineral diversity, including deposits that indicate a variety of past environments that could have hosted life. Using the…
Type Ia supernovae, nature's own “standard candles”, have been used for many years by astronomers to measure cosmological distances. These studies led to the…
Physicists at the Institute for Quantum Information and Matter at Caltech have discovered the first three-dimensional quantum liquid crystal — a new state of…
Supermassive black holes form some of the most enigmatic phenomena in astrophysics. Their enormous energy output is supposed to be generated by the…
Storms from the sun can affect our power grids, railway systems and underground pipelines through a phenomenon called geomagnetically induced currents, or…
The international X-ray laser European XFEL has reached one of its final major milestones on the way to scientific user operation. DESY has successfully…
Sometimes it takes a lot of trees to see the forest. In the case of the latest discovery made by astronomers at the University of Arizona, exactly 732,225….
There are many processes, such as propulsion, in which fluid in a supercritical state, where the temperature and pressure put a substance beyond a…
Researchers at Northwestern University have created a new method to extract the static and dynamic structure of complex chemical systems. In this context,…
Three years ago, a University of Utah-led team discovered that an ultra-compact dwarf galaxy contained a supermassive black hole, then the smallest known…
A team of Columbia Engineering researchers, led by Applied Physics Assistant Professor Nanfang Yu, has invented a method to control light propagating in…
However, a new paper by an international team of scientists in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) investigates an alternative…
The probability to find a certain number of photons inside a laser pulse usually corresponds to a classical distribution of independent events, the so-called…
