Researchers at the California NanoSystems Institute at UCLA published a step-by-step framework for determining the ...
But only in the last 70 years have we known for certain they were there. In 1956, physicists Clyde Cowan and Frederick Reines ...
A new computational framework maps 3D atomic positions in amorphous materials, achieving full accuracy for silica using ...
In a cavernous tunnel beneath the French–Swiss border, physicists have briefly recreated conditions that existed microseconds ...
At first glance, quantum mechanics might seem strange or even impossible. That’s because our everyday experiences of the laws of physics are very different from how matter and energy behave at the ...
Astronomers found evidence that dark matter and neutrinos may interact, hinting at a "fundamental breakthrough" that ...
Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: It used to be thought that bizarre interactions between subatomic particles known as neutrinos could be explained by another type of neutrino. The ...
Scientists didn’t understand why independently oscillating microscopic particles suddenly begin moving in perfect sync when grouped together. Researchers showed that fluid-driven hydrodynamic ...
The standard model of particle physics includes a veritable 'zoo' of subatomic particles. Visit the Particle Zoo (at http://www.particlezoo.net), and you can order ...
Transmission electron microscopes (TEMs) have been advancing our knowledge of the very small for nearly 100 years. Since their advent, they have helped scientists see structures as small as individual ...
