Physicists are tapping into the strange world of quantum sensors to revolutionize particle detection in the next generation ...

When bottom trawls are dragged across the seafloor, they stir up sediments. This not only releases previously stored organic carbon, but also intensifies the oxidation of pyrite, a mineral present in ...

A groundbreaking outreach program is giving high school students a unique opportunity to gain real-life science experience ...

If an experiment is repeated under similar conditions, the results should be the same. In reality, the situation is often ...

Scientists have launched a miniature lab into Earth's orbit, which contains microbes designed to produce proteins in space.

In a dramatic leap for astrophysics, Chinese researchers have recreated a key cosmic process in the lab: the acceleration of ...

A recent study provides evidence that some results of behavioral experiments with insects cannot be fully reproduced. So far, possible reproducibility problems have been little discussed in this ...

Scientists at Johns Hopkins APL have demonstrated a working capability that can radically accelerate the testing of critical ...

To learn more about the nature of matter, energy, space, and time, physicists smash high-energy particles together in large ...

To build the experimental stations of the future, scientists at the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II), a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science user facility at DOE's ...

A new laboratory launched into space this week could hold the key to feeding astronauts on long-term missions to the Moon, ...

Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) has completed a series of first-of-a-kind criticality experiments intended to provide ...
