In this environment, Mumpower’s team suggest that energetic photons in a jet collide with protons to create a neutron and a pion. Since these neutrons are have no electrical charge, many of them could ...

Some 1900 members of the US National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine have signed an open letter condemning ...

Femtosecond-long, petawatt-peak power beam could be used to probe previously inaccessible phenomena in materials science, ...

If these readouts are truly the product of random circuit sampling measurements performed on a quantum computer, they will be ...

Superfluidity is a quantum mechanical effect that occurs at temperatures near absolute zero. As the temperatures of certain ...

Kyriacou tells Physics World ’s Tami Freeman why it is important to assess a patient’s intracranial pressure as soon as possible after a head injury. He explains how Crainio’s optical sensor measures ...

Drop by drop: The team measured the electrical charge and contact areas created by water droplets spreading and contracting on a flat plate of Teflon – effectively simulating the movement of droplets ...

A team of researchers in Switzerland, Germany and the US has observed clear evidence of quantum mechanical interference behaviour in collisions between a methane molecule and a gold surface. As well ...

Water molecules on the surface of an electrode flip just before they give up electrons to form oxygen – a feat of nanoscale gymnastics that explains why the reaction takes more energy than it ...

By tuning the Rabi frequencies, researchers were able to explore different relaxation regimes of the system. When the ratio ...
