NYU researchers have found a way to use light to control how microscopic particles assemble into crystals, effectively ...

Scientists at the University of Maine are developing a liquid membrane that can trap coronavirus particles. The tool would allow them to analyze aerosol samples from a given space. From there, they ...

The types of glass that we encounter in everyday life, such as window glass or smartphone screens, are disordered solids. This means that they consist of particles locked in place, like those in ...

Physicists have long theorized the existence of a unique state of matter known as a quantum spin liquid. In this state, magnetic particles do not settle into an orderly pattern, even at absolute zero ...

AMES, Iowa – Martin Thuo likes to look for new, affordable and clean ways to put science and technology to work in the world. His lab is dedicated to an idea called frugal innovation: “How do you do ...

Self-assembling electronics made from liquid metal particles could provide a cheaper way of manufacturing computer chips, simply by harnessing the basic physics of how fluids flow through tiny ...

The CDF Collaboration at Fermilab has confirmed that a subatomic particle called the Bs meson flips between matter and ...

The regulation and legalization of cannabis in Canada, as well as at the state level throughout the United States, have increased the availability of several commercial cannabis products. The most ...

Researchers have found that attractive and repulsive interactions between particles are both essential to form structural order that controls the dynamics of glass-forming liquids. This knowledge will ...
