New research shows how gold helps transform plant-based ethanol into useful industrial chemicals with fewer emissions and ...

Experimental particle physicists working at the MicroBooNE experiment at Fermilab National Accelerator Laboratory have found ...

Physicists have built a quantum gas that behaves nothing like the substances we are used to, and that is exactly why it is ...

Physicists have identified a new superfluid phase in a class of quantum systems that, until recently, looked too unstable and ...

Scientists reveal a new state of matter between liquids and solids, where some atoms remain immobile even in molten metals.

Researchers at TU Wien have developed a one-dimensional “quantum wire” using a gas of ultracold atoms. In this system, both ...

In a bushfire or campfire, it is the glowing soot that we experience as flames. Flames actually extend well above where we ...

Particle and nuclear physics evokes evokes images of huge accelerators probing the extremes of matter. But in this round-up ...

An experiment with ultracold atoms reveals that a strongly driven quantum system doesn’t always heat up as expected. In daily life, doing work on something over and over usually makes it warmer. You ...

A simple explanation of dark matter and antimatter, how they differ, how scientists study them, and why both are important to understanding the universe.

And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a ...

"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of ...
