Something unexpected happened when atoms of gallium were observed to spontaneously transition from solid to liquid and back again. Scientists have discovered that the boundary [more…]
While dark matter’s enigmatic nature persists, Proca stars made of dark photons could help shed light on this cosmic mystery. Dark matter, the enigmatic entity [more…]
Massive neutron stars have such enormous pressure in their cores that neutrons residing there lose their integrity and become a new type of matter. Scientists [more…]
Scientists pioneer mixed-valence molecules in quantum-dot automata for faster, room-temperature operation, overcoming transistor limits. Scientists are taking an alternative approach to computing, replacing conventional components [more…]
Scientists propose an enhancement to the BabyIAXO axion detector, paving the way for an intensified search for elusive dark matter particles. In a recent study, [more…]
To understand the behavior of tiny, microscopic entities such as elementary particles, atoms, and even molecules, it is necessary to apply the mind-bending principles of [more…]
Based on the bizarre laws of quantum mechanics, quantum computers are widely regarded as the future of computing and information technology. The quantum nature of [more…]
Fermions forming pairs? It’s just a matter of getting the conditions right. Scientists classify all elementary particles into two categories with very different behaviors depending [more…]
Many physicists are still skeptical that dark energy can fully explain gravity, and are therefore exploring alternative theories. Our modern understanding of astrophysics and cosmology [more…]
Understanding room temperature superconductivity one step closer thanks to researchers looking at the effects of pressure. Understanding the nature of superconductivity is one of the [more…]
