From living matter to molecules to elementary particles, the world is made of “chiral” objects that differ from their ...

Astronomical amounts of energy could be extracted from black holes—to build a gigantic bomb, for example. Experts have now ...

A recent review in Engineering presents new methods for enhancing chiral optical signals. Chirality is important in many fields, but its optical ...

The 31st Quark Matter conference was the best attended in the series’ history, with more than 1000 participants.

A bomb from a black hole would probably be the most destructive weapon in the universe. Now Hendrik Ulbricht of the ...

Instead, it uses a system that mimics the physics of a black ... Black holes are known to possess angular momentum, or spin, which plays a critical role in how they interact with surrounding ...

The orbital angular momentum of electrons has long been considered a minor physical phenomenon, suppressed in most crystals and largely overlooked. Scientists have now discovered that in certain ...

some measurements require more—or fewer—entangled particles to be performed properly," explains Pozas Kerstjens. To address this, the research team has developed a classification system—a ...

Protons are the basic building blocks of matter. Together with neutrons, they form atomic nuclei. These minute, positively ...

If you've ever watched a flock of birds move in perfect unison or seen ripples travel across a pond, you've witnessed nature's remarkable ability to coordinate motion. Recently, a team of scientists ...
