Researchers have been working for decades to understand the architecture of the subatomic world. One of the knottier questions has been where the proton gets its intrinsic angular momentum, otherwise ...
Scientists have taken a bold step toward understanding dark matter, the invisible force shaping the cosmos. Using atomic ...
Carnegie Mellon University's Professor Curtis Meyer and his research colleagues explore an uncharted world inside protons and ...
Emmy Noether showed that fundamental physical laws are just a consequence of simple symmetries. A century later, her insights ...
Myosin II plays the most important role in cellular force generation. Myosin II molecules self-assemble into filaments with different structures depending on myosin II isoforms and other conditions ...
Physicists know from previous experiments that what happens at the nuclear scale to protons and neutrons also affects their ...
A group of scientists studying the San Fermín festival in Pamplona, Spain, believe there’s a way to predict the motions of a large crowd.
An extraordinary aspect of our residencies is that you become part of the scientific community that is dealing with fundamental truths about reality.” ...
Quantum spin liquids are fascinating states of matter where magnetic spins stay disordered, defying the usual rules of magnetism. Professor Yasuyuki Ishii and his team have made an exciting discovery ...
Blue Origin just launched a first-of-its kind mission to suborbital space. The company, which was founded by Amazon's Jeff ...
Work reveals new ways to understand and manipulate electrons in materials. MIT physicists, in collaboration with colleagues, ...
Will the unification of other forces emerge at even higher energies? Experiments already show that the effect of the strong force becomes weaker as energies increase. This is a good indication that at ...
