Time crystals exhibit perpetual motion-like behavior when separated from external energy input, but scientists found a way to ...

Chalmers researchers have developed a simple, light-based platform to study the mysterious “invisible glue” that binds materials at the nanoscale. Gold flakes floating in salt water reveal how quantum ...

Penn Engineers have developed a mathematical "Rosetta Stone" that translates atomic and molecular movements into predictions ...

From industrial robots to self-driving cars, engineers face a common problem: keeping machines steady and predictable. When ...

To figure out how they slither through substances that should, in theory, resist their movement, a team led by Kenta Ishimoto ...

The nature of dark matter remains one of the greatest mysteries in cosmology. Within the standard framework of ...

Even after centuries of study, water continues to surprise us. The same molecule that sustains life on Earth can, under the ...

Researchers have found that 2D materials can self-form microscopic cavities that trap light and electrons, altering their quantum behavior. With a miniaturized terahertz spectroscope, the team ...

Instead of relying on switches or digital control, the light finds its own path through the system. This approach could transform data transmission, computing, and communications by making optical ...

Penn Engineers have developed a mathematical "Rosetta Stone" that translates atomic and molecular movements into predictions of larger-scale effects ...

Astrology has always been an observational science, one that sees meaning where others see coincidence, writes Vikkramm ...

When arranged in just the right ways, two-dimensional materials can display unusual and valuable quantum effects such as superconductivity and exotic ...
