A pair of identical particles swapping places sounds like a small move. In quantum physics, it is a defining one.
In our latest episode of Lexicon, we sit down with Dr. Lulu Zhao, an ...
Optical trapping is a powerful tool for manipulating microscopic particles, but conventional approaches often suffer from limited trapping range and ...
Neutron stars harbor some of the most extreme environments in the universe: their densities soar to several times those of ...
Californians have long dealt with wildfire smoke as a seasonal fact of life, but those fires have become more intense and frequent, raising the ...
Your bedroom’s design, sleep habits, indoor allergens and pollutants in the bedroom, and several other factors can determine how well you sleep.
We all have a concept of reality. We know what is “fact” and what isn’t. However, the truth of the matter is that the definition of “real” is a mere construct of the brain. If that didn’t blow your ...
Neutron stars are among the most mysterious objects in the universe. Formed when massive stars collapse after exploding as ...
Physicists have long struggled to unite quantum mechanics—the theory governing tiny particles—with Einstein’s theory of ...
Tiny aerosol particles in the air play a big role in regulating how much sunlight our planet absorbs or reflects, and how clouds form above us. In a recent study, researchers found that extreme heat ...
