When giant balloons pop in slow motion, every ripple, stretch, and explosion of color becomes a visual spectacle. Captured ...

The strong nuclear force may abruptly loosen its grip on the fundamental particles that make up matter at a special “critical ...

The discovery that superconducting circuits can behave like quantum particles was a revolutionary development in the field of ...

Sport-related experiments are often crowd-pleasing classics in physics labs. Baseball or softball calculations are often simplified to head-on, energy-conserved collisions between two balls instead of ...

Using all-atom simulations of model mycomembranes, the work reports compelling structural insights into how α-mycolic acids and outer leaflet lipids (PDIM and PAT) shape membrane organisation. The ...

For decades, scientists have observed, but been unable to explain, a phenomenon seen in some soft materials: When force is ...

Physics is the search for and application of rules that can help us understand and predict the world around us. Central to physics are ideas such as energy, mass, particles and waves. Physics attempts ...

A Cornell physicist calculated new data from dark energy reviews, indicating the end of the universe within a few billion years in the future.
