Scientists are on the trail of a mysterious five-particle structure that could challenge one of the biggest theories in physics: string theory. This rare particle—never seen before and predicted not ...

However, the structures of solid hydrogen have remained elusive owing to difficulties in replicating such conditions experimentally. Now, a new study sheds light on this aspect using simulations ...

These scientists routinely study the subtle properties of solids by bombarding them with charged particles and watching for those that bounce off, get stuck or pass through to emerge, somehow changed.

More recently, hetero-structure devices with clear quantum-mechanical behaviour have been reported, ... A wire with a solid gold particle, imaged at 540 °C ...

Bulk-solid waste materials present unique handling challenges. Presented here is a discussion on how to navigate those ...

Particle physicists have uncovered a large, hidden void in Khufu’s Pyramid, the largest pyramid in Giza, Egypt – built between 2600 and 2500 BC. The discovery, published in Nature, was made ...
