Avalanche has raised $29 million in fresh funding to pursue its unique approach to fusion power, which can currently fit on a ...

Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have developed a novel artificial ...

To reach this conclusion, the researchers examined the most basic form of entanglement between identical particles using the concept of nonlocality introduced by physicist John Bell. While ...

In a first for tristructural isotropic (TRISO) fuel research, a cross-cutting effort among scientists at the Department of ...

This puzzle is known as the problem of time, and it remains one of the most persistent obstacles to a unified theory of ...

For nearly a century, astronomers have watched galaxies spin and the universe expand in ways that visible matter alone cannot ...

Invisible particles in the air are not just irritating our lungs, they are quietly rewiring the immune system that is ...

Turning lead into gold famously used to be the goal of ancient alchemists, but their modern counterparts have actually ...

As the spallation neutron beam passes through the TRISO particle, some neutrons are absorbed by the uranium while most are scattered away. A neutron area detector collects the scattered neutrons, ...

The new research verifies Rajagopal’s account of the QGP, using a neutral, electrically weak particle called the Z boson as a marker to track the movement of quarks in the plasma. Since the Z boson ...
