An international team of researchers has demonstrated an innovative technique for increasing the intensity of lasers. In a paper that made the cover of the…
The smallest respiratory droplets leak through a face mask constructed using a folded handkerchief. Despite the leakage, the spread of the droplets is impeded considerably…
“Satellites” in the spectrum of a vibrating nanostring (lower image insert) for increasing drive power. The different brightnesses of the upper (green) and lower (blue)…
The glass structure of a material is often believed to mimic its corresponding liquid. Polyamorphism between ices has been used as a guide to elucidate…
Excavation activities for the Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility began with first blast on June 23. Workers inspect the space cleared by the blast 3,650 feet below…
MIT physicists have observed that LIGO’s 40-kilogram mirrors can move in response to tiny quantum effects. In this photo, a LIGO optics technician inspects one…

At the point at which the energy landscape splits, the high symmetry chain decays into a lower symmetry state when the critical point is passed.…
New research findings from the IAS, University of Michigan, and UC Berkeley. In a new study of axion motion, researchers propose a scenario known as…
[embedded content]The making of mendelevium-244: In this video, Berkeley Lab project scientist Jennifer Pore describes how scientists working at Berkeley Lab’s 88-Inch Cyclotron created and…
Protons accelerated by laser-plasma interaction in a first target (left) pass through a second target, itself irradiated by another laser beam (middle and framed). The…
Quantum teleportation is an important step in improving quantum computing. “Beam me up” is one of the most famous catchphrases from the Star Trek series.…
University of Washington researchers used an infrared laser to cool a solid semiconductor material — labeled here as “cantilever” — by at least 20 degrees…
An element that could hold the key to the long-standing mystery around why there is much more matter than antimatter in our universe has been…
