Scientists have directly imaged atomic oxygen in water using a femtosecond laser, revealing unexpected stability and movement ...

For much of my career, I have been fascinated by the ways in which materials behave when we reduce their dimensions to the ...

Water is all around us, yet its surface layer—home to chemical reactions that shape life on Earth—is surprisingly hard to study. Experiments at SLAC's X-ray laser are bringing it into focus.

Instead of electrons in a solid, the researchers used Bose–Einstein condensates (BECs), ultracold gases in which atoms behave ...

Using the world’s most powerful X-ray laser, scientists have filmed atoms performing an eternal quantum dance that never ...

New research reveals that Earth’s solid inner core is actually in a superionic state, where carbon atoms flow freely through ...

Scientists have uncovered that some atoms in liquids don't move at all—even at extreme temperatures—and these anchored atoms dramatically alter the way materials freeze. Using advanced electron ...

They observe for the first time the movement of oxygen atoms in liquid water, revealing life forms and effects for plasma ...

Thousands of meters underground, in the chthonic depths of Earth's crust, scientists have at long last caught solar neutrinos ...

This achievement removes one of the biggest roadblocks in quantum materials science and brings practical quantum devices much ...

Neutrinos are one of the most mysterious particles in the universe, often called "ghost particles" because they rarely ...

A radical new theory begins with a central claim: consciousness is the fundamental field of reality; time, space, and matter ...
