After years of confusion, a new study confirms the proton is tinier than once thought. That enables a test of the standard model of particle physics.

It may sound like an oxymoron, but this massive nanoparticle made up of 7,000 sodium atoms is the largest to exhibit such ...

Studying twisted double-bilayer chromium triiodide (CrI₃) with scanning nitrogen–vacancy magnetometry, the authors directly image magnetic fields with nanoscale resolution and observe long-range ...

In the rapidly evolving world of two-dimensional materials, a small twist can have outsized consequences. Since the discovery that rotational ...

Graduates of China's "Seven Sons" defense universities found perches for themselves at U.S. colleges and research labs, and ...

For centuries, physics assumed that objects follow a single, well-defined path through space. Quantum mechanics says that ...

For the first time, physicists have developed a model that explains the origins of unusually stable magic nuclei based ...

Neutrinos are very small, neutral subatomic particles that rarely interact with ordinary matter and are thus sometimes ...

We describe electricity as a flow, but that’s not what happens in a typical wire. Physicists have begun to induce electrons to act like fluids, an effort that could illuminate new ways of thinking ...

Sagittarius A* may be a dense dark matter core instead of a black hole, offering a new explanation for the Milky Way’s central gravity.

The first facility to disperse sterile New World screwworm (NWS) flies from the United States in decades opened Monday in ...
