In a major breakthrough, scientists have observed electrons in graphene flowing like a nearly frictionless liquid, defying a core law of physics. This exotic quantum state not only reveals new fundamental behavior but could also unlock powerful ...

In crowded environments, more robots don't always mean faster results--in fact, too many can bring everything to a standstill. Harvard researchers discovered a surprising fix: adding a bit of randomness to how robots move can actually prevent ...

A breakthrough experiment has shed new light on one of astrophysics' biggest mysteries: the origin of rare proton-rich elements. For the first time, scientists directly measured a key reaction that creates selenium-74 using a rare isotope beam. The . ...

Quantum systems can secretly "remember" their past--even when they appear not to. Scientists found that whether a system shows memory depends on how you look at it: through its evolving state or its measurable properties. Each perspective uncovers .. ...

In the pursuit of powerful and stable quantum computers, researchers at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, have developed the theory for an entirely new quantum system - based on the novel concept of 'giant superatoms'. This breakthrough ...

A colossal "cosmic volcano" has erupted in deep space, as a supermassive black hole in galaxy J1007+3540 roars back to life after nearly 100 million years of silence. Astronomers captured stunning radio images showing fresh jets blasting outward ...

Mars may be hostile, but it might not be entirely unlivable. In lab experiments, yeast cells survived simulated Martian shock waves and toxic perchlorate salts--two major environmental threats on the Red Planet. Their secret weapon was forming ...

A major international effort has produced an ultra-precise measurement of the Universe's expansion rate, confirming it's faster than early-Universe models predict. By linking multiple distance-measuring techniques, scientists ruled out simple errors ...

Scientists have proposed a surprising new way to detect gravitational waves--by observing how they change the light emitted by atoms. These waves can subtly shift photon frequencies in different directions, leaving behind a detectable signature. The ...

A strange new kind of superconductivity has been uncovered in uranium ditelluride (UTe2), where electricity flows with zero resistance--but only under extremely strong magnetic fields that should normally destroy it. Even more surprising, the ...
