In the atomic fear of the 1950s, the U.S. Army tried to reinvent itself for nuclear war with the radical Pentomic division.

Scientists have observed “bending” atoms using a crystal grating—an experiment once believed impossible at the high energies required. The authors of a new, non-peer reviewed study detail how the a ...

Researchers at Kanazawa University report in Biophysics and Physicobiology how to optimize high-speed atomic force microscopy experiments on live cell membranes, so that moving objects like molecules ...

Griffith University researchers are conducting an experiment at ANSTO that will test a revolutionary physics theory that time reversal symmetry-breaking by neutrinos might cause a time dilation at the ...

Physicists working on the MIGDAL experiment reported the first direct evidence of the Migdal effect in January 2026, confirming an atomic process that was predicted in 1939 but had never been cleanly ...

Professor Daniel Blumenthal's lab develops chip-scale components that can bring the power and precision of quantum science outside of the tightly controlled environment of the lab. (Santa Barbara, ...
