The Conversation reports on winter jackets, blending old physics and modern materials to efficiently trap heat, ensuring ...

After accounting for Earth’s rotation, gravity is slightly weaker beneath Antarctica than anywhere else on the planet. That ...

Researchers at Wageningen University & Research (WUR) have defied long-standing material theories by developing ...

Environmentally friendly dissolution-based method reduces temperature of water by nearly 27 K in just 20 seconds ...

Muons tend to scatter more from high-atomic-number materials, so the technique is particularly sensitive to the presence of materials such as uranium. As a result, it has been used to create systems ...

Quasicrystals are orderly structures that never repeat. Scientists just showed they can exist in space and time.

At the smallest scales of matter, nature behaves in ways that feel almost counterintuitive. Individual particles follow ...

A team of US researchers has unveiled a device that can conduct electricity along its fractionally charged edges without ...

Once considered an oddity of quantum physics, time crystals could be a good building block for accurate clocks and sensors, ...

EPFL physicists have found a way to measure the time involved in quantum events and found it depends on the symmetry of the material. "The concept of time has troubled philosophers and physicists for ...

A new study reveals how intertwined forms of frustration in quantum materials can give rise to unconventional magnetic states.

This breathtaking clue about the architecture of consciousness supports a Nobel-Prize winner’s theory about how quantum physics works in your brain.
