Everyone has seen the iridescent rainbow patterns in an oil sheen on water.  Oil is hydrophobic, which repels water and doesn’t mix.  It spreads out across the surface of the water, and if ...

and fundamental physics. The paper is published in the journal Nature. In a world-first, scientists used precisely controlled optical traps, known as "magic-wavelength optical tweezers," to create ...

Terahertz radiation (THz), electromagnetic radiation with frequencies ranging from 0.1 and 10 THz, is central to the ...

The greater the amplitude of a wave then the more energy it is carrying. The wavelength, \(\lambda\), of a wave is the distance from any point on one wave to the same point on the next wave along.

But there may be something even more fundamental. Instead of space-time’s three spatial dimensions and one of time, the physics of our world could be encoded into a set of odd geometrical shapes ...

If so, it means there are fundamental computational caps on the abilities of these forms of artificial intelligence — which may mean it’s time to consider other approaches. “The work is really ...

Here we explore peptide inhibitors of Cdc20, a substrate-recognition subunit and activator of the E3 ubiquitin ligase the anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) that is essential in mitosis and ...

A new era for Formula 1 officially began on Wednesday when Lewis Hamilton got behind the wheel of a Ferrari for the first time. The Briton announced he would join the Scuderia last February and ...

For the 60th anniversary of the release of "A Love Supreme" the Village Voice asked dozens of sax players to muse on the jazz masterpiece.

A flexible and differentiated, large-blend strategy. Our research team assigns Silver ratings to strategies that they have a high conviction will outperform the relevant index, or most peers, over ...
