Modern electronic devices contain components such as transistors and diodes consisting of semiconductor layers made of silicon, germanium or gallium, and…
A series of experiments conducted by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (SLAC) researchers is…
Yujun Wang, research associate with the James R. Macdonald Laboratory at Kansas State University, and Paul Julienne at the University of Maryland, looked at…
The study, published August 8 in the Journal of Geophysical Research-Planets, proposes that high-energy particles from uncommon, large solar storms penetrate…
The first direct observations of how facets form and develop on platinum nanocubes point the way towards more sophisticated and effective nanocrystal design…
The tiny titans in question are bits of strontium monofluoride, dropped to 2.5 thousandths of a degree above absolute zero through a laser cooling and…
Physicists from the University of Kaiserslautern propose the usage of magnons to carry and process information instead of electrons as it is done in…
New supercomputing calculations provide the first evidence that particles predicted by the theory of quark-gluon interactions but never before observed are…
“It is well known that bursting bubbles produce aerosol droplets, so we were surprised, and fascinated, to discover that when we covered the water with oil,…
With LOFAR's high sensitivity, the disk of M51 in the radio regime could be traced much further out than before. The astronomers detected cosmic electrons and…
Nearly all black holes fall into one of two classes: big, and colossal. Astronomers know that black holes ranging from about 10 times to 100 times the…
The maps [see video here] and an accompanying journal article appear in the Aug. 15 issue of the journal Science. The researchers say their work demonstrates a…
The electronics we use for our computers only knows two different states: zero or one. Quantum systems on the other hand can be in different states at once,…
Their technique uses ultrafast pulses of laser light both to control the defect’s entire quantum state and observe how that single electron state changes over…
The space between the stars is not empty, but filled with interstellar matter – gas and dust particles. But all dust is not the same: An international team…
Researchers at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, have made a novel discovery that may potentially protect the world from future collisions with asteroids.
