Researchers at the University of Konstanz have uncovered a new mechanism of sliding friction: resistance to motion that ...

Come one, come all. See an electron gun demonstration, watch what happens when atmospheric pressure drops in a vacuum chamber and explore the solar system. These are just a few of ...

Long-established in accelerator physics, bent crystals are now being explored as tools to measure the fundamental properties ...

Collaboration to Deliver Superconducting Magnets up to 30 Tesla Through this partnership with the MagLab, Quantum ...

The bizarre properties of discrete time crystals could be harnessed to detect extremely subtle oscillations of magnetic ...

Superconductors are among the most puzzling materials in physics. They conduct electricity with zero resistance, but only ...

To ensure seamless integration, CERN has built, in an above-ground test hall, a full-scale test stand called the Inner Triplet String (IT String), which mirrors the underground configuration ( CERN ...

Researchers have demonstrated that electron orbitals, not just spin, can serve as a practical lever for controlling magnetism ...

Researchers at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Tallahassee, Florida, have pushed a palm-sized superconducting ...

In most conventional semiconductors, thermal conductivity decreases as temperature rises because heat-carrying lattice vibrations—called phonons—scatter more frequently.

STEM-ology, a monthly series of themed science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) events for all ages, continues this month at the University of Wyoming, with events including Toddler ...

Researchers at the University of Basel and the ETH in Zurich have succeeded in changing the polarity of a special ferromagnet using a laser beam. In the future, this method could be used to create ...
