A new trick for modeling molecules with quantum accuracy takes a step toward revealing the equation at the center of a popular simulation approach, which is used in fundamental chemistry and materials ...

In January I wrote a piece titled “ 5 Physics Equations Everyone Should Know .” Lots of you weighed in with your own ...

Simulations indicate that Saturn’s moon Enceladus ejects less ice into space than previously estimated. In the 1600s, astronomers Christiaan Huygens and Giovanni Cassini aimed their telescopes at ...

In theory, quantum physics can bypass the hard mathematical problems at the root of modern encryption. A new proof shows how.

Stimulation of the A13 brain region restores motor function in Parkinson's disease mouse models by alleviating bradykinesia and akinesia.

The higher the number in the ratio, which represents water, the gentler (or weaker) the resulting brew. So, if you take your coffee black, you may consider a slightly different ratio, like 17 or 18 to ...

Water, though familiar, still hides astonishing secrets. When squeezed into nanosized channels, it can enter a bizarre “premelting state” that is both solid and liquid at once. Using advanced NMR ...

New research from NASA's InSight lander, which recorded over 1,300 Marsquakes between 2018 and 2022, suggests Mars possesses a solid inner core, approximately 600 kilometers in radius, surrounded by a ...

One of the biggest obstacles on the road to a low-carbon energy future is caused by the rare-earth element lithium, a critical component for the batteries that can store the abundant and sustainable ...

Pathogens are becoming more and more resistant to antibiotics. With the goal of developing new therapeutic approaches to treat bacterial infections more effectively in the future, researchers at the ...
