With the help of carbon nanotubes and laser light, this machine can create immensely powerful X-rays on a microchip, ...

Train-style carriages full of travelers, flung through the air at over 700 mph in vacuum tubes. Ten years ago, hyperloop looked like it could be the transport of the future. So what happened?

Particle accelerators are often framed as exotic machines built only to chase obscure particles, but they are really ...

From kinetic lighting inspired by robotics and mycelium-based biomaterials to rugs woven from recycled PET and handcrafted ...

Horizon, the largest U.S. open-science supercomputer arriving in 2026, is being designed around the Characteristic Science ...

Horsepower is a relic of the steam age, yet it still dominates spec sheets, showroom chatter, and online debates about ...

Using intense X-rays, researchers captured a buckyball as it expanded, split and shed electrons under strong laser fields.

The same pulling force that causes “tears” in a glass of wine also shapes embryos. It’s another example of how genes exploit ...

A new theory-based approach provides access to the minute transverse motion of quarks within protons. Nuclear physicists have developed a new theoretical framework that allows them to calculate a ...

In the quantum world, the notion is that the present moment is influenced by the past, but it’s also influenced by the future ...

Laser-driven deformation and fragmentation of C60 is recorded in real-time by X-ray imaging. ●  Unexpected response: ...

Physicists have demonstrated with unprecedented accuracy that the speed of light remains constant. In 1887, a landmark physics experiment was carried out by American researchers Michelson and Morley.
