The technique, developed in the laboratory of NYU Physics Professor David Grier, is comprised of two components: making and recording the images of microscopic…
At the end of its life cycle, a star begins to collapse in the middle and throws new material into space. The new material eventually becomes incorporated into…
Classical computers are not powerful enough to describe even simple quantum systems. All the more it is difficult to understand complex many body systems….
And he credits another WUSTL professor for the fact that the astronauts even collected the moon rocks in the first place.Randy L. Korotev, Ph.D., a research…
The team has found that radioactive nuclei found in the earliest meteorites, dating back billions of years, could have been delivered by a nearby dying giant…

Scientists at MIT have figured out a key step toward the design of quantum information networks. The results are reported in the July 20th issue of Physical…
On July 20, 1969, Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin became the first humans ever to set foot on the moon. It was an event that…
The work is reported in a research article published today, Thursday, 16 July, in New Journal of Physics (co-owned by the Institute of Physics and German…
Located 7000 light-years away, towards the constellation of Serpens (the Snake), the Eagle Nebula is a dazzling stellar nursery, a region of gas and dust where…
Dr Dave Stegman, a Centenary Research Fellow in the School of Earth Sciences at the University of Melbourne, led the study and says that part of the intrigue…
The team used numerical simulations to show that some comet-like objects residing in a disk outside the original orbit of the planets were scattered across the…
We live in a hierarchical Universe where small structures join into larger ones. Earth is a planet in our Solar System, the Solar System resides in the Milky…
