Using lasers as tweezers to understand cloud electrification might sound like science fiction, but at the Institute of ...

’Tis the season to spend more time in our humble abodes, but before we snuggle in, it might be time to clear the air. According to the US Environmental Protection Agency, the average person absorbs an ...

On the nanoscale, objects warm up faster than they cool down. That is the surprising conclusion of Alessio Lapolla and Aljaž Godec at the Max Planck Institute of Biophysical Chemistry in Germany, who ...

Army and university researchers collaborated to develop a 3D-printable material using tiny particles that conduct heat and ...

Molecules could be super-cooled to within a whisker of absolute zero, suggest physicists who have for the first time chilled atoms in a fridge made of mirrors. A rash of breakthroughs in physics ...

It’s official. Yale physicists have chilled the world’s coolest molecules. The tiny titans in question are bits of strontium monofluoride, dropped to 2.5 thousandths of a degree above absolute zero ...
