The atomic nucleus is made up of protons and neutrons, particles that exist through the interaction of quarks bonded by gluons. It would seem, therefore, that it should not be difficult to reproduce ...

Materials called relaxor ferroelectrics have been used for decades in technologies like ultrasounds, microphones, and sonar ...

Researchers have captured the most detailed look yet at how gold’s atomic structure changes under some of the highest pressures ever achieved in a laboratory. The new findings offer rare insight into ...

The inside of giant planets can reach pressures more than one million times the Earth's atmosphere. As a result of that intense pressure, materials can adopt unexpected structures and properties.

Cold atom experiments trap atoms to probe quantum effects, enabling ultra-precise sensing, timekeeping, and monitoring of Earth and space phenomena. (Nanowerk News) Cold atom experiments are among the ...

Yuri Ralchenko led one of the oldest teams at the National Institute of Standards and Technology. The fate of some experiments hangs in the air. Lost Science Yuri Ralchenko led one of the oldest teams ...

Professor Daniel Blumenthal's lab develops chip-scale components that can bring the power and precision of quantum science outside of the tightly controlled environment of the lab. (Santa Barbara, ...
