Leiden physicists Daniela Kraft and Julio Melio have created soft structures that can take on different shapes without any ...

Accurately modeling irregularly-shaped particles isn’t easy, but a new study found a way to improve a century-old idea.

I peeked in on the house-sized particle detector known as STAR just after it took its last-ever snapshot of one of the most extreme types of fireball ever created. Inside, the conditions just after ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: It used to be thought that bizarre interactions between subatomic particles known as neutrinos could be explained by another type of neutrino. The ...

An upstate New York district, where most students are Native American, placed its superintendent on leave after images of a wooden box in a classroom spread on social media. By Troy Closson The image ...

Laser Ammo’s CQB in a Box is a dry fire system that is so portable that the kit, including the targets, fits into a duffle bag. I got a chance to test Laser Ammo’s CQB in a Box, a dry fire system that ...

Using a precisely aligned pair of laser beams, scientists can now hold a single aerosol particle in place and monitor how it charges up. The particle’s glow signals each step in its changing ...

I mainly use this package for geometry construction in LAMMPS, with some examples provided in the repository; of course, it can also be used for other software. Particles of specified geometries are ...

Despite its simplicity, the model is foundational. It is often the first non-trivial system for which students solve the Schrödinger equation exactly, and it beautifully illustrates core quantum ideas ...

To study the inner workings of an atom's nucleus, scientists have traditionally relied on sophisticated particle colliders to blast nuclei apart with electrons. These colliders often require large ...

AI expert Dominic Lees said that Morgan Neville’s decision to recreate Anthony Bourdain’s voice with the help of artificial intelligence in doc “Roadrunner” was “absolutely appalling.” Bourdain died ...
