From the beloved Tama, Japan’s stationmaster calico cat, to Garfield, the world-famous lasagna enthusiast, orange-colored felines have long captured hearts and imaginations. But behind their ...

Phonons are energy waves that travel through crystal lattices via atomic vibrations. Often compared to ripples in a pond, phonons play a vital role in optoelectronic applications and tunable photonic ...

Caption:MIT researchers created a periodic table of machine learning that shows how more than 20 classical algorithms are connected. The new framework sheds light on how scientists could fuse ...

Quasicrystals (QCs) have a unique atomic arrangement that lacks periodicity, giving them unusual symmetries not found in regular crystals. Scientists have been exploring their quasiperiodic magnetic ...

Kawasaki has unveiled a groundbreaking innovation in personal mobility with CORLEO, a robotic horse designed to tackle all terrains with exceptional agility. Powered by its four robotic legs, CORLEO ...

Type 1a supernovae are powerful star explosions that help scientists measure distances in space. They happen when a white dwarf, the dense leftover core of a star, takes on too much material, becomes ...

Discovering and controlling exotic physical states is key in condensed matter physics and materials science. It has the potential to drive advancements in quantum computing and spintronics. While ...

Promising directions in the design, fabrication, characterization, and application of 3D architected materials (from left to right, top to bottom): 3D woven metamaterials, aperiodic self-assembled ...

Alteration of the expression of the co-called 'Sonic Hedgehog' gene can transform feet scale and wing feathers. While a transient over-expression of the gene can permanently turn feet scales into ...

WashU physicists shine a microwave laser into a chunk of diamond to create a time quasicrystal, a new phase of matter that repeats precise patterns in time and space. Physicists at Washington ...

Researchers at Northwestern University have developed a groundbreaking method to tackle plastic waste using only air moisture and a clever catalyst. This innovative, non-toxic, and eco-friendly ...

Researchers at the University of Ottawa have made a breakthrough in understanding ionization, the process by which atoms lose electrons and become charged particles. Ionization plays a key role in ...
