Hints of a new fundamental interaction are starting to look less like statistical ghosts and more like a pattern that refuses ...

A new technique allows complex interactions in materials to be simulated using Monte Carlo simulations thousands of times ...

Researchers have discovered that molecules experience non-reciprocal interactions without external forces. Fundamental forces such as gravity and electromagnetism are reciprocal, where two objects are ...

In the race to uncover the deepest secrets of the universe, researchers are turning to powerful new tools. One of the most promising tools is the quantum computer. It offers a way to explore problems ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has established itself as a decisive tool for probing nanoscale interactions, particularly adhesion forces and capillary phenomena. A precise understanding of these ...

Vertically aligned carbon nanotube (VaCNT) membranes can be used to clean or desalinate water with a high flow rate and low pressure. Recently, researchers from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology ...

At the nanoscale, the chemistry of surfaces plays a decisive role in how particles move and where they end up. A new study published in Advancing Earth and Space Sciences highlights the importance of ...

Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, North Carolina State University If you drop a light object and a heavy object from a tower, which one reaches the ground first? As you may recall ...
