High-precision laser spectroscopy measurements on the thorium-229 nucleus could reveal new physics, say TU Wien physicists ...

For the hot end, an aluminium mount was pressed into soil, transferring the Earth’s ambient heat to the engine’s bottom plate ...

So far, the team has measured several effects, including wave steepening, shock fronts and solitary wave fission thanks to the chip. While these nonlinear behaviours had been predicted in superfluids, ...

An effect first observed decades ago by Nobel laureate Arthur Ashkin has been used to fine tune the electrical charge on ...

Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity does a great job at explaining gravity but it is thought to be incomplete ...

NCCR SPIN focuses on creating scalable spin qubits in semiconductor nanostructures made of silicon and germanium, with the ...

In the early universe, moments after the Big Bang and cosmic inflation, clusters of exotic, massive particles could have ...

Recent events are a test case for the future of global science. If the international community tolerates the targeting of ...

Protein evolution plays a key role in many biological processes that are essential for life – but what does it have to do with physics? Schematic overview of procedure used to generate simulated ...

UK artist Alison Stott has created a new glass and light artwork – entitled Naturally Focused – that is inspired by the work ...
