If you picture an electron breaking free from a solid, the process seems simple. Give it enough energy, and it should blast ...

A team of researchers from TU Wien has shed new light on the behavior of electrons fleeing a solid material. Their research ...

What happens when electrons leave a solid material? This seemingly simple phenomenon has, until now, eluded accurate ...

Physicists at MIT have developed a new way to probe inside an atom's nucleus, using the atom's own electrons as "messengers" ...

New studies of the “platypus of materials” help explain how their atoms arrange themselves into orderly, but nonrepeating, ...

X-ray beams aren't used just by doctors to see inside your body and tell whether you have a broken bone. More powerful beams ...

"This is the moment where the metal detector has gone off and you've dug up something shiny. You still need to find out ...

If these knots had a slight bias toward matter over antimatter, their unraveling could help explain the matter-antimatter ...

Nicholas Spada is one of the only scientists in the world using a nuclear x-ray process to study deadly nanoparticles in wildfire smoke. What he’s uncovered in California is a nightmare.

Chinese researchers used the Oceanlite supercomputer and a custom NNQS model to simulate molecular systems with 120 spin ...

"They are the parents of all matter in the universe today, including our own bodies, while the knots can be thought of as our grandparents," physicist Yu Hamada explained.

They experimentally showed that quantum mechanics can govern even large collective systems (or macroscopic systems) and not just microscopic elements like atoms and ... by this year’s Nobel winners ...
