In recent years, some large physics experiments worldwide have been trying to gather evidence of a nuclear process known as ...

In theory, as Earth spins through its magnetic field, any conductive material placed on its surface should experience a force ...

Phase changes are central to the world around us. Probably the most familiar example is when ice melts into water or water ...

The fate of the universe hinges on the balance between matter and dark energy: the fundamental ingredient that drives its accelerating expansion.

Hundreds of regular patterns spontaneously emerge on a small germanium chip. A curiosity about tiny dots on a germanium wafer ...

Combining the DESI data with other experiments shows signs that the impact of dark energy may be weakening over time—and the ...
