The sun pumps the inside of the bubble full of solar particles that stream out to the edge until they collide with the material that fills the rest of the…
Ashburn's path also included a love of science, especially mathematics.All of those factors were in play 25 years ago when Ashburn, then a first year physics…
In a flash, the world changed for Tim Noe – and for physicists who study what they call many-body problems.The Rice University graduate student was the first…
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's Savannah River National Laboratory have successfully shown that they can replace useful little particles of…
The scientists are studying the hot (30 million degree) gas using X-ray data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and optical data from the Very Large…
The study offers an updated calculation of the Earth's energy imbalance, the difference between the amount of solar energy absorbed by Earth's surface and the…
The researchers found that the wall of the aorta, the largest blood vessel carrying blood from the heart, exhibits ferroelectricity, a response to an electric…
After positive evaluation by an international team of experts, the Priority Programme (SPP 1385) “The First Ten Million Years of the Solar System” supported by…
Using computer simulations, a RUB researcher has shown that the oxygen molecule (O2) is stable up to pressures of 1.9 terapascal, which is about nineteen…
X-ray photography has been used for decades for medical purposes. Now, scientists have found new ways of obtaining precise and comprehensive data from x-ray…
A quantum computer based on quantum particles instead of classical bits, can in principle outperform any classical computer. However, it still remains an open…
Why are researchers interested in light sources that are able to emit single particles of light? “Such light sources are a basic requirement for the…
“Near the north and south poles, the conditions appear to be favorable for water ice to exist beneath the surface,” says Timothy Stubbs of NASA's Goddard Space…
The researchers, reporting today in Nature, aimed SLAC's Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) at a capsule of neon gas, setting off an avalanche of X-ray…
Rice University physicists have gone to extremes to prove that Isaac Newton's classical laws of motion can apply in the atomic world: They've built an accurate…
A research team led by physicists at the University of California, Riverside has identified a property of “bilayer graphene” (BLG) that the researchers say is…
