A new framework for understanding the nonmonotonic temperature dependence and sign reversal of the chirality-related ...

Physicists are rapidly expanding the traditional menu of matter beyond solids, liquids, gases and plasmas, uncovering exotic ...

Under extreme planetary conditions, water turns into a strange, electricity-conducting solid hidden deep inside giant planets.

Physicists have long relied on the idea that electrons behave like tiny particles zipping through materials, even though ...

Korean researchers detect hidden semiconductor defects 1,000× more sensitively, boosting efficiency, lifespan, and design ...

Superionic water—the hot, black and strangely conductive form of ice that exists in the center of distant planets—was ...

Semiconductors are used in devices such as memory chips and solar cells, and within them may exist invisible defects that interfere with electrical ...

For more than a century, schoolbook physics has divided matter into neat categories like solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. A ...

A CEO I advised once told me, “I know coaching matters. I just wish it didn’t sound so… therapeutic.” He imagined coaching as a formal interaction—scheduled, structured, and private—and like many ...

I was reading a book about students and attention—Distracted: Why Students Can’t Focus and What You Can Do About It—when I had an epiphany. Not about why my students had trouble focusing, but about ...

For the first time, researchers have pushed electrons to flow so fast they went supersonic, creating a shockwave. The currents of electricity flowing through our devices share a name with river ...
