Owing to the many different ways atoms can be arranged within the material, ice can exist in many more forms than what’s known as ice I, the type we’re all familiar with. Scientists have actually ...

Developing and manufacturing effective, safe, reliable new drugs or critical new materials for use in semiconductors or applications involving dangerous materials requires many layers of knowledge.

A new take on sonocrystallization is showing industrial promise thanks to experimental investigations at Diamond Light Source, the UK’s national synchrotron research facility. Joe McEntee reports ...

New time crystal achievement could help bridge classical and quantum physics. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. Physicists have ...

Physicists have placed part of a sapphire crystal into a quantum superposition, making it the heaviest object to show quantum effects, in a new take on Erwin Schrödinger's famous cat experiment. When ...

Time crystals are a strange state of matter with properties that sound impossible, but they have been created. Now, German scientists have made one that lasts 10 million times longer than in previous ...

Researchers in the US have succeeded in reducing the group velocity of light by a factor of more than 100 in a novel two-dimensional photonic crystal. Halice Altug and Jelena Vuckovic of Stanford ...

Like a perpetual motion machine, a time crystal forever cycles between states without consuming energy. Physicists claim to have built this new phase of matter inside a quantum computer. In a preprint ...

Numerical programming and computer simulations are ubiquitous through all subjects in physics. Thus, computational physics has grown to be an appealing field for those who wish to acquire advanced and ...
