Attosecond pulses enable sub-femtosecond studies of ultrafast electron dynamics. Since 2001, pulse durations have shortened ...

Building space-based AI. Designing new molecules with quantum computers. Why pink noise is bad for your sleep. All that and ...

Superconductivity is a quantum state of matter characterized by an electrical resistance of zero and the expulsion of ...

Scientists at the University of Cambridge have discovered that electrons can be fired across solar cell materials in just 18 ...

A team at IBM Research has assembled a strange new ring-shaped molecule that bends around like a more complicated Möbius strip ...

The best candidate for next-generation magnetic devices—technology that can power, store, sense or transport information—may be, counterintuitively, antiferromagnets. Today, the most widely used ...

In our latest episode of Lexicon, we sit down with Dr. Lulu Zhao, an ...

A storm from the Sun can make a planet’s sky glow or a spacecraft’s computer stumble. At Mars in May 2024, it did both, just without the auroras people photographed on Earth.

Novel method holds promise for smaller, tuneable machines to produce water-window X-rays Discovery paves the way for smaller ...

Scientists have shown that lightning-like bursts can be recreated in small blocks of solid materials in the lab.

The scientific community long assumed that to understand how lightning works, one needed a ...

A study from the Research Center for Materials Nanoarchitectonics (MANA) has uncovered a theoretical mechanism showing how the electronic band structures of strongly correlated insulators can be ...
