A recent study by researchers from Peking University demonstrates the potential of nuclear electric resonance to control the nuclear spins of nitrogen atoms in DNA using electric field gradients, ...

In the quest to take the "forever" out of "forever chemicals," bacteria might be our ally. Most remediation of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) involves adsorbing and trapping them, but ...

The 17th-century French philosopher René Descartes famously said, “I think, therefore I am.” And what Descartes meant by that ...

The tale of splitting the atom isn't just about America—it's a journey from New Zealand to Manchester, led by the brilliant ...

The researchers said that this occurred in ‘negative time.’ Not surprisingly, this got a lot of attention and people really wanted to know what negative time was, and how it may have the potential for ...

Carbon particles are present in many aspects of our daily lives. Soot, which consists of tiny carbon particles, is generated ...

Microsoft researchers report that when the system was given over 608,000 stable materials from databases, it was able to ...

MIT physicists have discovered a new magnetic state in an antiferromagnetic material using terahertz light, opening doors to ...

Genesis data is now producing high impact science in cosmochemistry, solar physics, coronal mass ejections, and space ...

However, in 2011, scientists discovered that some atoms, including oxygen, iron and other heavier elements, can be expelled from their host galaxy by supernovae and get caught up in giant cosmic ...

Scientists have demonstrated that atoms can exhibit wave-like behavior, challenging long-held assumptions that experiments of this nature were impossible and opening new doors in quantum physics.

A pencil-shaped ultracold gas of frozen two-level atoms interacting via photon-mediated interactions, with elastic and inelastic components. A continuous laser drive excites the atoms on-resonance.
