In theory, as Earth spins through its magnetic field, any conductive material placed on its surface should experience a force ...
A group of U.S.-based physicists has presented experimental evidence suggesting that electricity can be generated from the ...
"Two-thirds of all energy that we use is turned into heat." Scientists push the limits of physics with shocking new energy ...
Physics has a problem—their key models of quantum theory and the theory of relativity do not fit together. Now, Dr. Wolfgang Wieland from Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) is ...
For decades, scientists believed that lead-208, a "doubly magic" and highly stable atomic nucleus, was perfectly spherical.
The first logical step is to assess how likely it is, if one assumes that the underlying physics really does imply a power law, that one would find the actual empirical data. This calculation is ...
The questions in this quiz are suitable for GCSE physics students studying work, power and efficiency, energy and power, efficiency and electrical appliances. If you struggled with the quiz ...
Like engineers who design high-performance Formula One race cars, scientists want to create high-performance plasmas in ...
The mission of the Zebra Pulsed Power Lab (ZPPL) is to perform high-quality basic research in the area of high-energy-density (HED) physics, the study of matter under extreme conditions of temperature ...
