Scientists discovered that nanoscale wrinkles in 2D materials can preserve electron spin, enabling ultracompact and ...

Wrinkles can be an asset—especially for next-generation electronics. Rice University scientists have discovered that tiny ...

Anyons – the particle-like collective excitations that can exist in some 2D materials – tend to bunch together in a two-dimensional conductor. This behaviour, which has now been observed by physicists ...

By exploring positive geometry, mathematicians are revealing hidden shapes that may unify particle physics and cosmology, offering new ways to understand both collisions in accelerators and the ...

Might two bent crystals pave the way to finding new physics? The Standard Model of particle physics describes our world at its smallest scales exceptionally well. However, it leaves some important ...

A condition long considered to be unfavorable to electrical conduction in semiconductor materials may actually be beneficial in 2D semiconductors, according to new findings by UC Santa Barbara ...

The first electron–positron collisions occurred at an upgrade to one of Japan’s premier particle-physics experiments on 26 April. Following six years of work, the start of the SuperKEKB accelerator ...

Segment 4C: Collisions We differentiate between elastic and inelastic collisions Segment 4C: Collisions In this segment, we differentiate between elastic and inelastic collisions. The conservation ...

09 December 2020 Proton collisions probe the final frontier of the standard model of particle physics The nuclear forces that act on short-lived subatomic particles have been hard to study.

Extreme collisions between neutron stars could create exotic particles beyond the standard model, including axions, the hypothetical particle that comprises dark matter.
