ANN ARBOR—Strange things happen in the lower reaches of our planet’s mantle, that plastic-like layer between Earth’s crust and core that flows under pressure, lifting or lowering features on the ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...

Harvard researchers have discovered that ultra-soft solids, such as gels and biological tissue, can produce wake patterns similar to those in liquids while also deforming like solids. This hybrid wave ...

Quantum mechanics, developed a century ago, has long challenged conventional views of nature. At its core lies the principle of wave-particle duality, which shows that quantum objects can behave like ...

Researchers at Tokyo University of Science have, for the first time, observed quantum interference in a beam of positronium — an exotic atom made of an electron and its antimatter twin, the positron.

Light’s dual nature, manifesting as both wave-like and particle-like behaviour, is a phenomenon known as wave-particle duality and remains one of the most perplexing mysteries in quantum mechanics.
