MIT physicists and colleagues report new insights into exotic particles key to a form of magnetism that has attracted growing interest because it originates from ultrathin materials only a few atomic layers thick. The work, ...
Computers benefit greatly from being connected to the internet, so we might ask: What good is a quantum computer without a quantum internet?
Why does the universe contain matter and (virtually) no antimatter? The BASE international research collaboration at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva, headed by Professor Dr. Stefan Ulmer from ...
Rocks recently exposed to the sky after being covered with prehistoric ice show that tropical glaciers have shrunk to their smallest size in more than 11,700 years, revealing the tropics have already warmed past limits last ...
A new study out of The University of Texas at Arlington shows that frozen land in Alaska is eroding faster than it can be replaced due to climate change.
Like a supersonic jet being blasted with high-speed winds, Earth is constantly being bombarded by a stream of charged particles from the sun known as solar wind.
Harnessing the power of the sun is vital for a clean, green future. To do so, we need optoelectronic devices, like solar cells, that can convert light into electricity efficiently. Now, a team led by Osaka University has ...
Researchers in Japan have discovered a new species of starfish. The discovery came about thanks to collaborative work among researchers, fishers, and aquarium and museum staff.
Betula ermanii, a tree species native to the high mountains in Japan and the cold and snowy regions of Russia, is usually tetraploid (possessing four genome sets). However, the species found on Shikoku Island and Kii Peninsula ...
