Using a new method, physicists found a way to 'catapult' electrons across solar materials in quadrillionths of a second.

Photothermal AFM-IR technology provides spatially resolved infrared spectroscopy for detailed compositional mapping of ...

Physicists have long struggled to unite quantum mechanics—the theory governing tiny particles—with Einstein’s theory of ...

The ESA's Mars Express and ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter spacecraft watched as a superstorm that ravaged Earth also struck the ...

In this video, we explore the Standard Model of particle physics, detailing the quantum field theories that describe fundamental particles and forces in the universe. Topics covered include: - ...

A novel theory suggests that the current expansion rate of the universe is not fixed, but was in fact quite different in the ...

Two microscopic grains collide and produce a tiny spark. This phenomenon may have provided the energy to kick off life on Earth. But if these solid particles have the same composition, what factor ...

Dr Reyaz Ahmad When we speak of death, we usually resort to the language of biology—the stopping of a heart, the ceasing of ...

A huge solar storm struck Mars in 2024, supercharging its upper atmosphere and briefly disrupting spacecraft orbiting the Red Planet.

What happens when a solar superstorm hits Mars? Thanks to the European Space Agency’s Mars orbiters, we now know: glitching spacecraft and a supercharged upper atmosphere.

Photothermal AFM-IR combines atomic force microscopy and infrared spectroscopy to reveal chemical heterogeneity and structural features at the nanoscale.
