In many quantum materials—materials with unusual electrical and magnetic properties driven by quantum mechanical effects—electrons can organize themselves into Landau levels. Landau levels are ...

Fluids moving through pipes lose energy to friction along the walls. Collisions, defects, and random motion steadily break ...

Researchers at the University of Vienna have uncovered a surprising phenomenon: polymer chains with segments that simply fluctuate at different intensities can spontaneously develop directional, ...

Electrons in solar materials can be launched across molecules almost as fast as nature allows, thanks to tiny atomic vibrations acting like a “molecular catapult.” In experiments lasting just 18 ...

Densely packed polymer chains can spontaneously start moving in one direction, even without being pushed, a finding that could explain DNA behavior and inspire new smart materials.

Scientists have discovered that electrons in solar materials can be launched across molecules almost as fast as nature allows, driven by tiny atomic vibrations.

Uranus spins on its side, creating a wild magnetosphere. Unlike Earth's stable bubble, Uranus's magnetic field is lopsided ...

Perovskite solar cells have surged from laboratory curiosities to serious contenders against silicon in barely a decade, yet the physics behind their remarkable energy harvesting has remained partly ...

Kate Fox says Joe Ceccanti was the ‘most hopeful person’ before he started spending 12 hours a day with a chatbot ...
