Just over 200 years after French engineer and physicist Sadi Carnot formulated the second law of thermodynamics, an international team of researchers has unveiled an analogous law for the quantum ...

Quantum tunnelling — when a particle skips through a barrier that classical physics would forbid — happens faster when objects have less energy, find physicists who worked out a way to probe photons ...

As adults, these large snakes are better known for their slow, lumbering gait, but the researchers discovered that young ...

This paper describes a Particle-in-Cell code written in a modern programming language Julia. The code aims to simulate a process of electric discharge in gases. The most prominent features currently ...

Particle-initiated breakdown characteristics of conical spacers were investigated experimentally in N2 and 79% N2/21% 02 gas mixture to provide fundamental parameters determining the breakdown voltage ...

Pneumatic conveying uses air to either push (positive pressure) or pull (negative pressure) solid material through a ...
