Typically, the charge of electrons is used to store and process information in electronics-based devices. In spintronics, the focus is instead on the magnetic moment or on magnetic vortices, so-called skyrmions—the goal is smaller,

It's true. Muons - you know, those subatomic particles, also known as fat electrons - wobble faster than we suspected. By we, of course, I mean they - the particle physicists obsessed with things like that. Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's ...

Unlike regular computers where data is stored in binary bits as 0 or 1, the “qubits” in quantum computers can exist as both at the same time. Stranger still, this information can be effectively “teleported” over any distance. Now, scientists from ...

Natalie Paquette spends her time thinking about how to grow an extra dimension. Start with little circles, scattered across every point in space and time—a curlicue dimension, looped back onto itself. Then shrink those circles down, smaller and smaller ...

Explore the intriguing question of whether CERN is opening portals to another dimension. This video delves into the scientific theories and implications surrounding CERN's experiments with particle physics,

From solar panels to nanoscale machines, physics applications of origami and kirigami have surged in recent years. Simon Perks reports (Courtesy: iStock/Li Kim Goh) We’ve all admired the delicate butterflies, cranes and flowers created by those who have ...
