In biophysics, the kinetic states of molecules play a determining role in the metabolic and physiological processes in which they take part. Now, a new article specifies for the first time the levels ...

Physicists have upended a foundational law of materials science by heating gold to over 19,000°C — more than 14 times its melting point — while it remained perfectly solid. The study, published in ...

In the world of metals, it has long been considered common knowledge that achieving both strength and ductility (the ability to stretch without breaking) at the same time is nearly impossible. When a ...

The energy-influx/entropy-influx relation in the Green—Naghdi Type III theory of heat conduction is examined within a thermodynamical framework à la Müller—Liu ...
