Graphite, the soft material found inside ordinary pencils, may seem simple, but scientists have discovered that it can behave in remarkable ways when examined at the atomic level. Researchers from the ...

The ordinary graphite in pencil lead is proving to be surprisingly multifaceted at the microscale. In a study published in ...

In an international experiment, researchers observed Jahn–Teller polarons—quasiparticles that could play an important role in future ultrafast spintronic devices. These polarons emerged within the ...

Scientists used swirling water waves to simulate a quantum effect, uncovering rotating nodal patterns that could deepen understanding of hidden quantum phenomena.

Teachers don’t need expensive equipment or elaborate planning to engage their students in a meaningful exploration.

A new study reveals how a simple hormone balance in your saliva may be able to predict when your memory is at peak ...

A newly proposed quantum sensing technique could make it much easier to identify one of physics’ newest and most intriguing ...

On June 3, a flatbed truck arrived at the front gates of the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) carrying a piece of machinery that could influence the course ...

Pigeons and other birds can do it. So can sea turtles and spiny lobsters, moths and mole rats, gray whales and big brown bats. Many members of the animal kingdom can detect the subtle undulations of ...
