Studies that explore how the denser sections of atoms, known as atomic nuclei, interact with neutrons (i.e., particles with ...

In an attempt to speed up quantum measurements, a new Physical Review Letters study proposes a space-time trade-off scheme ...

The majority of ice loss comes from large ice chunks breaking off from glaciers and the melting of surface ice and snow.

For most of my life, I’ve been interested in matters of scale — the extremes, from the unknowable vastness of our universe to ...

Does it rain diamonds on Neptune and Uranus? Scientists uncover how extreme pressure and temperature deep inside these ice giants create a continuous diamond rain.

Argonne researchers have shown that they can use light to temporarily alter the crystal symmetry within lead sulfide quantum dots. This process reduces the off-centering of lead atoms and affects the ...

The study of elementary particles and forces is of central importance to our understanding of the universe. Now a team of ...

The team at the National Institute of Standards and Technology publishes measurement data crucial for advanced research in ...

Drone-based data on Greenland’s water vapor is improving climate models and understanding of future ice loss. For the first ...
