Plants harness quantum physics to capture solar energy with near-perfect efficiency. Scientists are now exploring how to ...

What if time is not as fixed as we thought? Imagine that instead of flowing in one direction -- from past to future -- time could flow forward or backward due to processes taking place at the quantum ...

Time in our lived reality is unidirectional, but a study finds quantum world can bend time and make it go in opposite ways.

Darwin's theory of natural selection provides an explanation for why organisms develop traits that help them survive and reproduce.

A study reveals that in the microscopic realm of atoms and subatomic particles the equations describing their behavior remain ...

The Anderson transition is a phase transition that occurs in disordered systems, which entails a shift from a diffusive state ...

Researchers have discovered that superconducting nanowire photon detectors (SNSPDs), originally designed for detecting ...

Recently, the work was completed by the group of Prof. Sheng Meng from the Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Beijing National Research Center for Condensed Matter Physics. By ...

Researchers have developed a novel experimental platform to measure the electric fields of light trapped between two mirrors with a sub-cycle precision. These electro-optic Fabry-Perot resonators will ...

Sophisticated birdsong follows strict grammatical rules, much like human sentences. But what happens when birds can't hear ...

With HiT&MiS deployed in Sweden, physics Ph.D. student Charmi Patel '24 will use it to monitor the northern lights, as seen ...

Traditional black holes, as predicted by Albert Einstein's theory of General Relativity, contain what are known as ...
