Quantum spin liquids are exotic states of matter in which spins (i.e., the intrinsic angular momentum of electrons) do not ...

Emily Kwong and Berly McCoy of NPR's Short Wave talk about why swearing might improve physical performance, how birds' bills changed during the pandemic and why scientists are sampling whale breath.

A new theory of "dark photons" attempted to explain a centuries-old experiment in a new way this year, in an effort to change ...

More than 200 years ago, Count Rumford showed that heat isn’t a mysterious substance but something you can generate endlessly ...

A new quantum processor has pushed the lifetime of fragile quantum information to a regime that once looked out of reach for superconducting chips, keeping data stable around 15 times longer than ...

In a new study published in Nature Physics, researchers have demonstrated that quantum light, particularly bright squeezed vacuum (BSV), can drive strong-field photoemission at metal needle tips.

More than 420 anti-science bills attacking longstanding public health protections – vaccines, milk safety and fluoride – have been introduced in statehouses across the U.S. this year, part of an ...

UW-Milwaukee physics and astronomy assistant professor Lia Medeiros explains gravitational waves and the role UWM played in discovering them. It’s been just over a decade since physicists first ...

A giant 'wave' is rippling through the Milky Way, pushing thousands of stars across the galaxy, and scientists don't know what triggered it. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

ABSTRACT: Cultural and creative industries (CCIs) are one of the most rapidly developing business sectors globally. Rapid developments in science and technology have required CCIs to adjust to meet ...

Octopuses and their arms are still a bit of a mystery. Not because scientists don't know how they work; their arms are boneless hydrostats, made up of groups of muscles working together, and capable ...
