Physicists have now demonstrated a particle accelerator so small it fits inside a single molecule, shrinking one of science’s ...

This photo taken during a media tour on October 11, 2024 shows the exterior view of the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (Juno) in Kaiping, in southern China's Guangdong province.

Using lasers as tweezers to understand cloud electrification might sound like science fiction, but at the Institute of ...

The atypical structure of the radium monofluoride molecule allows physicists to search for answers to some of the universe’s ...

With the help of carbon nanotubes and laser light, this machine can create immensely powerful X-rays on a microchip, ...

Aerosols are tiny particles of liquid or solid material that drift through the air and are constantly present in our surroundings. Some are big enough to spot, like spring pollen, while others, ...

The swirling field traps and accelerates electron particles inside the tube, forcing them into a spiral motion. As they move ...

Researchers created scalable quantum circuits capable of simulating fundamental nuclear physics on more than 100 qubits.

Historically, particle accelerators have been massive structures, often spanning kilometers underground. The Large Hadron Collider at CERN, for example, stretches 17 miles (27 km) and is one of the ...

At the end of the 1600s, Newton proposed the universal law of gravitation: that every particle attracts every other particle ...

In 1919, physicist Theodor Kaluza hypothesized that extra dimensions might solve some outstanding problems in physics. And while we haven't found any evidence yet for anything outside our normal ...

A research team in Japan has created a groundbreaking Milky Way simulation that follows more than 100 billion stars with a level of detail that was once thought impossible.
