IceCube's new UV-sensitive modules are expected to reveal neutrinos from distant galaxies, supernovae and other cosmic ...

Phelps, an engineer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, works with radioactive material daily, furthering understanding of the ...

"The study addresses a central challenge in controlled fusion research: overcoming the strong Coulomb repulsion between positively charged nuclei, which conventionally necessitates heating fusion fuel ...

Before the RHIC shut down, it was the only operational particle collider in the U.S. and one of two heavy-ion colliders in the world, the other being the Large Hadron Collider at CERN in Switzerland.

The material exhibits an exceptionally low lattice thermal conductivity of ~0.18 W/m·K, placing it among the lowest known for crystalline solids.

Scientists have long understood that heating a metal softens it. New study shows that, counterintuitively, heat strengthens pure metal in extreme conditions. On the other hand, alloyed metals become ...

Defining Advanced Materials Science So, what exactly is advanced materials science? It’s not just about making stronger ...

The performance and stability of smartphones and artificial intelligence (AI) services depend on how uniformly and precisely semiconductor surfaces ...

Nuclear winter is a warning written in the language of climate models and atmospheric chemistry. It's a disaster we should ...

A rechargeable battery based on technology pioneered by Thomas Edison may finally get its due. But while the famous inventor envisioned nickel-iron batteries powering the automobile industry over a ...

For a mere moment after the Big Bang, no neutrons or protons are thought to have existed. These neutral and positively charged particles, respectively, make up the center of all atoms today. But ...

A team in Japan may have found a way to track the invisible force that shapes our universe, without needing to see or touch it.
