On Tuesday the field of quantum mechanics received a thoughtful 100th-birthday present from the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences: three shiny new medals, 11 million Swedish kronor (to be divided ...

“The mass and the antiparticle nature of neutrinos can be studied by measuring the radioactive beta and double-beta decays of atomic nuclei,” Ruotsalainen said. “There are likely some tens of suitable ...

Making electrons flow like a liquid is difficult, but inside graphene researchers forced them to move so fast that they created dramatic shockwaves ...

In a remarkable leap for quantum physics, researchers in Japan have uncovered how weak magnetic fields can reverse tiny electrical currents in kagome metals—quantum materials with a woven atomic ...

Yet even at this apparently late date in the field's development, there are companies that are still developing entirely new qubit technologies, betting the company that they have identified something ...

The 2025 Nobel prize in Physics has been awarded to three scientists for the discovery of an effect that has applications in medical devices and quantum computing.

New studies of the “platypus of materials” help explain how their atoms arrange themselves into orderly, but nonrepeating, patterns.

As 240-foot-high power lines are set to rise across Sugarloaf, Pennsylvania, longtime residents are fighting eminent domain claims. The worst part? There's not even enough juice to keep Big Tech's ...

On Oct. 3, 1950, three Bell Labs scientists received a patent for a "three-electrode circuit element" that would usher in the transistor age and the era of modern computing.

This message is still resonating, but not quite as clearly as it once did. While nearly seven out of ten Americans want more offshore wind farms, public support has been slipping a bit. According to ...
