What happens to soft matter when gravity disappears? To answer this, UvA physicists launched a fluid dynamics experiment on a sounding rocket. The suborbital rocket reached an altitude of 267 km ...

The science pros at TKOR burn a match in pure oxygen to observe reactions.

If you enjoyed this article, I’d like to ask for your support. Scientific American has served as an advocate for science and industry for 180 years, and right now may be the most critical moment in ...

Oxygen sensors detect the amount of oxygen in the exhaust. Oxygen sensors usually don’t have a replacement schedule. A bad oxygen sensor can be diagnosed with a code reader or scan tool. A car’s ...

Independent verification of data is a fundamental principle of scientific research across the disciplines. The self-correcting mechanisms of the scientific method depend on the ability of researchers ...

Considering the difficulty of tracking the main branch in the DI-engine updates, we have updated the independent code branch to reproduce the results in the paper. You can check the details in the ...

Sometimes science can be painfully slow. Data comes in dribs and drabs, truth trickles, and veracity proves viscous. The world's longest-running lab experiment is an ongoing work in sheer scientific ...
