Physicists have found evidence of rare X particles in the quark-gluon plasma produced in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. The findings could redefine…
Credit: Lucy Reading-Ikkanda/Simons Foundation ‘Geometric frustration’ can cause the electrons in materials with atoms arranged in a triangular pattern to organize in three competing ways…
The first image taken of the compact object at the heart of M87. Researchers consider this to be a supermassive black hole, but a new…
A visualization of the zero-energy electronic states – also known as a ‘Fermi surface’ – from the kagome material studied by MIT’s Riccardo Comin and…
Experiments at the Large Hadron Collider in Europe, like the ATLAS calorimeter seen here, are providing more accurate measurements of fundamental particles. Credit: Maximilien Brice,…
How does our world work on a subatomic level? The Standard Model. What a dull name for the most accurate scientific theory known to human…
An illustration of positively charged holes interacting with negatively charged electrons between two sheets of graphene to form a bosonic pair. Credit: Cory R. Dean,…
MIT physicists have detected a hybrid particle in an unusual, two-dimensional magnetic material. The hybrid particle is a mashup of an electron and a phonon.…
A multitude of swirling clouds in Jupiter’s dynamic North North Temperate Belt is captured in this image from NASA’s Juno spacecraft. Appearing in the scene…
Theory and simulations reveal why seemingly weak effects sometimes play a strong role in how particles move through the air close to the Earth’s surface.…
It’s all about momentum — and tiny amounts of liquid right at the spout. Scientists at TU Wien answer an age-old question: How can the…
Professor Stephen Hawking’s final theory on the origin of the universe, which he worked on in collaboration with Professor Thomas Hertog from KU Leuven, was…
Visualized are two-dimensional pressure fluctuations within a larger three-dimensional magnetically confined fusion plasma simulation. With recent advances in machine-learning techniques, these types of partial observations…
Artistic view of the nanoparticle-in-groove plasmonic cavities. Molecules cover the gold film and are sandwiched between the groove and the 150-nm large nanoparticle. The infrared…
The team of academician GUO Guangcan of University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has made important progress…
Artist’s concept. The new observations record a key crossover from classical to quantum behavior. The world we experience is governed by classical physics. How we…
Simulation shows the pairing of silicon and carbon vacancies into a divacancy in silicon carbide. Red shows void volumes at defect sites. Upper left: qubit.…
