This pioneering method promises a new approach for studying the co-evolution of galaxies and their central black holes. First results indicate that for…
A Rice laboratory led by chemist Stephan Link has discovered a way to use liquid crystals to control light scattered from gold nanorods. The researchers use…
Its surface material composition differs in important ways from both those of the other terrestrial planets and expectations prior to the MESSENGER mission,…
The Bolshoi supercomputer simulation, the most accurate and detailed large cosmological simulation run to date, gives physicists and astronomers a powerful new…
Groundbreaking research by the National Physical Laboratory's (NPL) Quantum Detection Group and an international team of collaborators is underpinning the…
Searching for extra-solar planets – which are planets outside of our solar system – is very popular these days. About 700 planets are known at the moment, a…
“ELENA is a new facility aimed to deliver antiprotons at the lowest energies ever reached in order to improve the study of antimatter,” said CERN’s Stéphan…
The innovative process allows them to create room-temperature ferromagnetic materials that are stable for long periods more effectively and with fewer steps…
The climate on Venus is widely known to be unpleasant — at the surface, the planet roasts at more than 800 degrees Fahrenheit under a suffocating blanket of…
For the first time, the Austrian team proved that mathematical tools give us the freedom to choose how to separate out the constituting matter of a complex…
By successfully confining atoms of antihydrogen for an unprecedented 1,000 seconds, an international team of researchers called the ALPHA Collaboration has…
Chilled to nano-kelvin temperatures, cesium atoms—three at a time—come together to form a bound state hundreds or even thousands of times larger than…
Controlled shock compression has been used for decades to examine the behavior of materials under extreme conditions of pressure and temperature. Using an…
You probably shouldn’t lose too much sleep about it, according to an Indiana University of Pennsylvania geoscientist.“Thousands of old satellites, rocket…
Physicists at the RUB, working in collaboration with researchers from Grenoble and Tokyo, have succeeded in taking a decisive step towards the development of…
Users analyze real scientific data collected by NASA's Kepler mission, which has been searching for planets beyond our own solar system — called exoplanets —…
