In our three-dimensional space, elementary particles neatly filter into either bosons or fermions. But in lower dimensions, that distinction gets a bit murky.

The currents of the oceans, the roiling surface of the sun, and the clouds of smoke billowing off a forest fire—all are ...

After years of confusion, a new study confirms the proton is tinier than once thought. That enables a test of the standard model of particle physics.

Discover the fundamentals of light in a simple and easy-to-understand way. This video explains key principles and fascinating phenomena of light, including how it travels, reflects, refracts, and ...

The team used an AI method known as equation discovery to develop a model to simulate the interactions between small eddies—circular, vortex-like currents—and large-scale ones. These interactions are ...

For decades, cobalt has served as a benchmark ferromagnet. Its crystal structure and magnetic properties have been extensively documented. However, the new findings show that cobalt hosts a rich ...
