Aspirin in form of small crystallites provides new insight into delicate motions of electrons and atomic nuclei. Set into molecular vibration by strong ultrashort far-infrared (terahertz) pulses, the ...

The most useful skill I learnt during my studies, other than technical physics knowledge, was definitely programming. It comes into everything I do now; even simple every-day tasks often involve a ...

Ben Carlson, assistant professor of physics at Westmont, explores the scientific foundations of today’s most pressing energy and climate issues in a ...

"Opposites charges attract; like charges repel" is a long-held fundamental principle of physics that you might have heard at school, but your teacher may have been wrong. Researchers from the ...

I find it odd that some people still express skepticism or outright denial of climate change science. Physicists derived one of the fundamental insights into climate change by 1850: Air holds 7% more ...

NASA scientists are reshaping the basic understanding of a type of wave in space known as a kinetic Alfvén wave. When NASA's Magnetospheric Multiscale -- or MMS -- mission was launched, the scientists ...
