Research team investigates reactivity of single molecules under controlled microscopic conditions
Design principle could guide search for metals with immutable quantum states
Research shows that spinning quasiparticles, or magnons, light up when paired with a light-emitting quasiparticle, or exciton, with potential quantum information applications.
A thin device triggers one of quantum mechanics’ strangest and most useful phenomena
One of Nagoya University’s leading research centers has made another groundbreaking discovery, looking back into parts of space further than ever before.
Signs of disturbance in the dwarf galaxies of one of Earth’s nearest galaxy clusters indicate an alternative gravity theory
Early in its history, shortly after the Big Bang, the universe was filled with equal amounts of matter and “antimatter”
New research suggests an unseen ‘mirror world’ of particles that interacts with our world only via gravity that might be the key to solving a major puzzle in cosmology today – the Hubble constant problem.
To solve a long-standing puzzle about how long a neutron can “live” outside an atomic nucleus, physicists entertained a wild but testable theory positing the existence of a right-handed version of our left-handed universe.
No, scientists still don’t know what dark matter is. But MSU scientists helped uncover new physics while looking for it.
A Policy Forum article published today in Science calls for a new approach to regulating genetically engineered (GE) crops, arguing that current approaches for triggering safety testing vary dramatically among countries and generally lack scientific merit
New analysis shows antifouling membranes reduce costs, energy over their lifetimes
Rice engineers’ formula IDs materials for virtual reality, 3D displays
At least, if you have enough legs
Adversarial training makes it harder to fool the networks
Multiple climate tipping points could be triggered if global temperature rises beyond 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, according to a major new analysis published in the journal Science.
Scientists have used centuries-old clam shells to see how the North Atlantic climate system reached a "tipping point" before the Little Ice Age.
Efforts to activate "positive tipping points" to tackle the climate crisis have been boosted by a £1 million (US$1.15m) grant from the Bezos Earth Fund.
Honeybees rely heavily on flower patterns – not just colours – when searching for food, new research shows.
A radical decentralisation of politics and decision-making in Iran is needed to allow Kurdish communities to benefit from natural resources, experts have argued.
