Physicists just discovered a brand-new particle that appears to be an exotic cousin to the protons and neutrons that make up ...

Quantum mechanics is both the most powerful theory physicists have ever devised and the most baffling. On the one hand, ...

It is one of history’s more irritatingly on-brand coincidences that Albert Einstein was born on Pi Day, as though the ...

Mars missions, Dr. Lulu Zhao shows how solar particles threaten our tech, and how AI is learning to forecast them.

Optical trapping is a powerful tool for manipulating microscopic particles, but conventional approaches often suffer from limited trapping range and ...

One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the observation that matter behaves differently at the smallest scales. A key ...

A near-100-year-old debate between the theoretical physicists Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr has finally been settled—and not in the former’s favor. A team of physicists in China have realized a ...

Abstract: High-throughput, non-contact, and label-free manipulation of particles and cells is essential for biomedical applications such as stem cell therapy, blood transfusion preparation, and immune ...

Deep underground in southern China, there is a 20,000-ton tank of liquid that can detect neutrinos. Named JUNO, the detector's first results are in — and they're very promising. When you purchase ...
