Atoms in molecules occupy fixed positions, connected by rigid rods. A molecule such as formic acid (methanoic acid, HCOOH) is ...

Physicists believe the universe may exist in a fragile “false vacuum” state that could collapse at any moment. If triggered, the transition would spread at the speed of light — about 300,000 ...

Many physicists are searching for a triplet superconductor. Indeed, we could all do with one, although we may not know it yet ...

They ask us to believe, for example, that the world we experience is fundamentally divided from the subatomic realm it’s built from. Or that there is a wild proliferation of parallel universes, or ...

For nearly a century, some of the simplest questions in quantum theory have stubbornly resisted clean answers, turning basic ...

By adjusting a simple chemical ratio, scientists discovered a new way to control exotic quantum states that could underpin the next generation of quantum computers.

Golf Digest senior writer Alex Myers is on a one-year mission to see how good he can get at golf through daily training, practice and playing. Read more from his “Late Scratch?” series here. Late in ...

The study shows that in quantum devices, reading a clock consumes far more energy than running it. This insight will help ...

Reasonable people can debate what role, if any, ICE should be playing in Minnesota. This, however, is what we’ve seen.
