The 74 examines the downstream effects on girls entering tech fields based on stereotypical beliefs that boys are better at ...

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

The photoelectric effect, first explained by Albert Einstein in 1905, laid the foundation for quantum mechanics. It occurs when high-energy light strikes atoms, releasing electrons. This phenomenon is ...

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 photons, can also accurately detect high-energy protons. This unexpected finding ...

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 ...

What if time is not as fixed as we thought? Imagine that instead of flowing in one direction—from past to future—time could ...

Climate scientists present a realistic supercomputer simulation that resolves the complex interactions between fire, vegetation, smoke and the atmosphere. The authors find that increasing greenhouse ...

William Matthaeus, the Martin A. Pomerantz Chair of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Delaware, has won UD’s highest ...

A huge detector in the Mediterranean Sea spotted the most energetic neutrino from space to date. The particle could shed light on the universe’s most extreme phenomena.
