Zero-point energy is one of the most intriguing phenomena of quantum mechanics. Because quantum particles are also waves, ...

The answer to this question puts a spotlight on two revolutionary 19th-century scientists. In 1828, the Scottish botanist Robert Brown published his observation that tiny particles in suspension were ...

We've all heard about plastic pollution in our oceans, but what about the plastic particles quietly building up inside our bodies? A major European research project called PlasticHeal has taken a deep ...

Quantum mechanics theory predicts that, in addition to exhibiting particle-like behavior, particles of all sizes can also ...

A research project based at Heidelberg University and Heidelberg University Hospital targets plastic particles and climate change as driving factors for the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in ...

Critical wildlife habitats are exposed to pollution risk in the seas off the southern United States, with implications for ...

Numerical analysis of the effect of thermo- and diffusiophoretic forces on the motion of moderately large (0.01 ≲ Kn ≲ 0.3) combustion-generated (soot) particles and on the formation of soot-shell ...

All forms of electromagnetic radiation, whether they're called waves or rays, are generated by particles in motion. In a radio signal, for example, negatively charged electrons quickly move back and ...
