Researchers announced that they have achieved the world's first elucidation of how hydrogen produces free electrons through ...

Chemistry textbooks explain how reactions start and end, but they rarely show what happens ...

A material cooled near absolute zero produced an electrical signal that physics said should not exist, revealing a new kind ...

Associate Professor Yuichiro Matsushita of Materials and Structures Laboratory, Institute of Science Tokyo, Mitsubishi ...

For as long as people have watched storms roll across the sky, lightning has inspired awe and fear. You can see the flash and ...

In Sept. 2012, NASA’s Van Allen Probes observed the radiation belts around Earth had settled into a new configuration, separating into three belts instead of two. Scientists think the unusual physics ...

In a quiet corner of low-temperature physics, researchers have stumbled on a phase of matter that seems to break one of the field’s unwritten rules: it works without well-defined particles. Instead of ...

Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) are exploring a novel approach to mitigate a critical challenge in fusion energy development, i.e., the detrimental effects of runaway electrons.

Edgerton’s flash work to trillion-frame capture with single-pixel sensors, helping you choose gear for fast events ...

“Dark” electrons within solid materials may help us learn more about the behaviour of high-temperature superconductors, and perhaps solve other mysteries in material science. Most of a material’s ...

Researchers have recently identified 'dark electrons'—electrons undetectable using traditional spectroscopy—within solid materials. By examining palladium diselenide, the team discovered states ...
