Nuclear fusion works by replicating the sun's process of fusing light atoms under extreme heat and pressure to create heavier ...

A team has identified a strain of bacteria that can break down and transform at least three types of PFAS, and, perhaps even more crucially, some of the toxic byproducts of the bond-breaking process.

A recent study by researchers from Peking University demonstrates the potential of nuclear electric resonance to control the nuclear spins of nitrogen atoms in DNA using electric field gradients, ...

The 17th-century French philosopher René Descartes famously said, “I think, therefore I am.” And what Descartes meant by that ...

Two-dimensional (2D) materials, such as graphene, have numerous practical applications in areas that include electronics in transistors, sensors and detectors; as battery and fuel cell electrodes; and ...

A recent study demonstrates the potential of nuclear electric resonance to control the nuclear spins of nitrogen atoms in DNA using electric field gradients, thereby achieving artificial intervention ...

Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have created a new thermometer using atoms boosted to such high energy levels that they are a thousand times larger than normal.

Chilling footage shows the harrowing moment child killer Axel Rudakubana strolls up to the entrance of a dance class moments before he murders three girls.

In chemistry, a covalent bond occurs when two atoms share an electron, merging together to produce a stronger, more permanent structure.

While it may not sound like a major leap, this approach offers one big advantage: killing cancerous cells while doing less damage to surrounding healthy tissue.

Researchers at the University of Basel have shown that quantum systems can have antagonistic interactions, too—one agent ...

The discovery of topological electronic crystals in twisted graphene offers insights into electron dynamics, with potential implications for quantum computing.
