Foams have long baffled scientists because liquid drains from them far sooner than theory predicts. New research shows the reason: the bubbles don't stay put--they rearrange, opening pathways for liquid to escape. The key factor is the pressure ...

For the first time, scientists have reconstructed the full history of a galaxy outside the Milky Way using chemical clues. By analyzing oxygen across NGC 1365 and comparing it with simulations, they traced its growth over 12 billion years. The ...

Scientists in Australia have demonstrated a prototype quantum battery that could revolutionize energy storage. By harnessing quantum effects, it can absorb energy in a rapid "super absorption" event, enabling much faster charging than conventional .. ...

A decades-old superconducting mystery just took a surprising turn. Strontium ruthenate, a material that conducts electricity with zero resistance at low temperatures, has long puzzled scientists with hints of an exotic, complex superconducting state. ...

Scientists have created a new kind of time crystal using sound waves to levitate tiny beads in mid-air. These particles interact in a one-sided, unbalanced way, breaking the usual rules of motion and creating a steady, repeating rhythm. The system is ...

Researchers have uncovered friction without contact--driven entirely by magnetic interactions. As two magnetic layers slide, their internal forces compete, causing constant rearrangements that dramatically increase resistance at certain distances. .. ...

Astronomers have uncovered surprising evidence of a thick atmosphere surrounding TOI-561 b, a scorching, fast-orbiting rocky planet once thought too extreme to hold onto any gas. Using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, researchers found the planet . ...

Scientists at Harvard have built a miniature device that can twist and tune light in real time. By rotating two stacked photonic crystals and adjusting their spacing with a tiny mechanical system, they can control how light's "handedness" behaves. .. ...

A routine quantum optics technique just revealed an extraordinary secret: entangled light can carry incredibly complex topological structures. Researchers found these hidden patterns reach up to 48 dimensions, offering a vast new "alphabet" for ...

In an incredibly lucky cosmic accident, NASA's Hubble Space Telescope captured a comet breaking apart in real time--something astronomers have long tried and failed to observe. The comet, C/2025 K1 (ATLAS), wasn't even the original target, but when . ...
