Mohammad Hafezi, a Joint Quantum Institute Fellow, and his colleagues investigated how changing the ratio of fermionic to ...

Physicists have engineered photons that behave as if they inhabit a space far richer than the familiar three dimensions, ...

One of the biggest issues facing the solid-state lithium-based batteries we all depend upon is of the performance of the anode; the transport of lithium ions and minimization of dendrite formation are ...

Have you ever spilled coffee on a solid surface such as the floor, table or clothing? Most of us have had the experience, but if you have not, or if you are curious, spill just a drop and let it dry ...

Under the right conditions, sand can flow. When heavier grains are placed atop lighter grains in a container, the less dense grains can burble upward like the blobs of a lava lamp, a study finds. The ...

From the pots and pans on the stove to the wires suspending bridges, metal composites need to account for a variety of strength, malleability, and durability to meet human need. Now, researchers from ...

Scientists are baffled by solid gold particles found in Norway spruce needles. Previously thought impossible, this discovery ...

Cohesion is often seen as a key factor to bulk powder flowability and is frequently blamed for problems in powder processing. Particles attract to one another in cohesive powder to create agglomerates ...

Observing the behavior of the particles in the composite metals helps to understand the mechanism of losing its strength and ductility, which makes possible to design the composites metals with higher ...
