Their method to speed up the design of “magnetic bottles” offers an answer to a complex 70-year-old challenge. Predicted motions of hundreds of particles in a fusion reactor. The motions predicted ...

A team of scientists has found a way to slow energy leaks that have impeded the use of tiny nanocrystals in light-driven chemical and energy applications. As described in an article published in the ...

What do desert lizards and leafy plants have in common with futuristic fuel cells? Thanks to a student researcher in Toronto, the answer might just be the key to a cleaner, cheaper energy future. Eric ...

A researcher has revived an almost 100-year-old theory to refute that the Big Bang ever happened, challenging one of the most established theories in modern science. As detailed in a paper published ...

Light was long considered to be a wave, exhibiting the phenomenon of interference in which ripples like those in water waves are generated under specific interactions. Light also bends around corners, ...

What would it really take to travel at or beyond the speed of light? In this video, we break down the hard physics Hollywood ...

The Biden administration seems to want nuclear energy to solve some of A.I.’s thorniest problems while A.I. solves some of nuclear energy’s thorniest problems—catapulting both technologies into a ...

New theoretical research finds that it's impossible to form a black hole with the energy of light particles alone, poking a hole in Einstein's theory of general relativity. When you purchase through ...

New chip design uses photons rather than electrons to perform calculations, and scientists hope to integrate the technology into future graphics cards to train AI. When you purchase through links on ...

Predicted motions of hundreds of particles in a fusion reactor. The motions predicted with the new method (orange, red) agree very closely with those predicted by Newton’s laws (blue, green), but can ...
