The researchers, led by a team at the University of Cambridge, have identified a key stage in the birth of a very massive star, and found that these stars form…
In the latest issue of Acta Crystallographica Section A: Foundations and Advances , Sarah Hoffmann-Urlaub and Tim Salditt report the fabrication and testing of…
Harvard astronomer Laura Schaefer (Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, or CfA) and her colleagues examined the question of what would happen to GJ…
Since the 1986 discovery of high-temperature superconductivity in copper-oxide compounds called cuprates, scientists have been trying to understand how these…
The Ullmann reaction examined is a chemical reaction in which silver atoms catalyze the bond between two carbon atoms to which iodine was previously bonded….
Recent findings indicating the possible discovery of a previously unknown subatomic particle may be evidence of a fifth fundamental force of nature, according…
Controlling these instabilities leads to higher temperatures within tokamaks and thus more efficient fusion processes. The research was published in the August…
“We've looked for the usual suspects in the usual places and found no solid signals, so we've started searching in some creative new ways,” said Julie McEnery,…
Venus may have had a shallow liquid-water ocean and habitable surface temperatures for up to 2 billion years of its early history, according to computer…
Many properties of our everyday world can be explained if atoms are thought of as small, solid marbles, which feel each other only if brought in direct contact…
Atomic force microscopes make the nanostructure of surfaces visible. Their probes scan the investigation material with finest measurement needles. KIT has now…
The researchers found that the number of these spots corresponds exactly to the number of scattering microscopic particles in the optical material. Therefore,…
In the past few years, optical atomic clocks have made spectacular progress, becoming 100 times more precise than the best caesium clocks. So far, their…
New research at the University of Rochester might help authorities in the not-too-distant future be better informed in tackling such situations and do so more…
According to the scientists behind the study, from Imperial College London, the coupled light and electron would have properties that could lead to circuits…
Making such devices possible is the goal of a relatively new field of study called “transient electronics.” These transient devices could perform a variety of…
