Optical frequency combs—laser sources that emit evenly spaced colors of light—are foundational, ubiquitous tools for ...

A new AI framework called THOR is transforming how scientists calculate the behavior of atoms inside materials. Instead of relying on slow simulations that take weeks of supercomputer time, the system ...

Yet swarms of fireflies clearly exercise a level of control over when they light up, and they do so only in specialized organs, and those are aspects scientists are still keen to understand better.

Donut Lab's solid-state battery pack charged from 10-80% in 12 minutes at over 100 kW in a Verge TS Pro motorcycle, the first pack-level test of the controversial tech.

Heat shields are designed to protect the surface and cargo of a spacecraft as it enters an atmosphere. Aerospace engineers in The Grainger College of Engineering at the University of Illinois ...

Superconductors are among the most puzzling materials in physics. They conduct electricity with zero resistance, but only under specific conditions that researchers have struggled for decades to ...
