Every year, AIP awards physical scientists for their leadership and excellence. In recognition of women in the physical ...

In 2023, Melvin M. Vopson and Serban Lepadatu proposed a “Second law of information dynamics,” and Vopson advanced a mass–energy–information equivalence principle, developments with implications for ...

In classical physics, memory is defined in a straightforward way. If a system’s future behavior depends only on its current condition, it is considered memoryless. If earlier states continue to ...

The team’s theoretical calculations were largely supported by the results, and showed it’s all about the viscosity. Water reached the 90 percent mark in only a few seconds. Meanwhile, cold maple syrup ...

Dr. Salpeter is a recognized key opinion leader in the field of physics-constrained energy technology optimization, with more than 15 years of experience building computational frameworks, laser-based ...

Researchers at the University of Vienna have uncovered a surprising phenomenon: polymer chains with segments that simply fluctuate at different intensities can spontaneously develop directional, ...

Neuroscience has traditionally explained communication in the brain through electrochemical signaling: action potentials, synapses, neuromodulators, and ...

In a research project that has real implications for their regular laboratory work, a pair of physicists at Brown University ...

By cooling an atom-thin magnetic material, physicists have experimentally confirmed a classic 1970s model of two-dimensional ...

For years, the Prairie Pothole Region has bothered me in a very specific way. On a map, it looks like a normal landscape: ...

Researchers have discovered how tiny organisms break the laws of physics to swim faster. Such secrets of mesoscale physics ...

An international group of researchers have investigated the role of memory in quantum systems and dynamics. Their findings ...
