A tiny device that entangles light and electrons without super-cooling could revolutionize quantum tech in cryptography, ...

Kanazawa University, report the successful creation of artificial synaptic vesicles that can be remotely controlled by ...

Imagine a whirlpool spinning in a river, or a tornado swirling through the sky. They don't just spin on the spot: they travel forward while maintaining that spiraling motion inside them. These ...

For nearly two centuries, physics textbooks have treated light as magnetically indifferent to the materials it passes through ...

When we go to sleep, the process often becomes complicated. Melatonin is the main source of hormones that induce sleep and ...

Researchers have discovered a way to store information using a rare class of materials called ferroaxials, which rely on ...

The effect, first predicted over 60 years ago and regarding objects traveling near the speed of light, has been lent support ...

Pushing the limits of structured light, applied physicists report a new type of optical vortex beam that not only twists as it travels but also changes in different parts at different rates to create ...

Excessive artificial light at night (ALAN) harms ecosystems and human health. LED lights, while energy-efficient, often produce excessive blue light, worsening ALAN. Properly designed outdoor lighting ...

Black holes can’t be formed from pure light. Quantum physics would curb their creation under any foreseeable conditions, a new study suggests. Typically, matter is responsible for black holes. They’re ...

Out-of-equilibrium states that deviate from thermodynamic equilibrium are crucial not only for biological systems but also ...

You’ll find them at campsites, tanning beds, and glow parties, which sounds like a really interesting day for just one person. This week, we’re exploring the illuminating science of blacklight. * Have ...
