Researchers poured over historical photographs in search of "transients"—short-lived flashes of light of the night sky.

A team of physicists from the University of Innsbruck and Harvard University has proposed a fundamentally new way to generate ...

Superconductivity and quantum computing are two fields that have seeped from theoretical circles into popular consciousness.

When the balance in reflectivity shifts, “the whole circulation of the climate will shift in order to transport energy from ...

New simulations suggest dark matter could explain the mysterious gamma-ray glow at the Milky Way’s center. The findings show that the galaxy’s early mergers may have shaped dark matter in a way that ...

Researchers in Konstanz discovered a way to manipulate materials with light by exciting magnon pairs, reshaping their ...

By miniaturizing THz spectroscopy to a chip-scale platform, James McIver’s lab has uncovered a promising new method for controlling quantum materials. Under certain conditions, two-dimensional (2D) ...

Its outstanding characteristic is that its waves, unlike the waves from ordinary light sources, are coordinated in space and ...

A stable ‘frequency comb’ of photons with discrete colours has been generated on a microscale chip by removing copper contaminants from the circuit. The development of PICs was enabled by advances in ...
