At “Physics on Tap,” locals and students shared drinks while learning about physics education research from Prof. Natasha ...

NASA's Lead Electrostatics Scientist, Dr Charles Buhler, claims he’s discovered a “new force” that counteracts gravity with ...

A-B Tech has been selected as one of 20 schools and colleges nationwide to send a science experiment into outer space this year as part of the Student Spaceflight Experiments Program (SSEP). The ...

Sometimes the most extraordinary adventures are hiding in plain sight, and the Science Museum of Virginia in Richmond proves ...

Quantum physicists at ANU have observed atoms entangled in motion. "It's really weird for us to think that this is how the ...

In physics, some waves behave in a surprising way: instead of spreading out and fading, they hold their shape as they travel ...

The hope for quantum computers is that the devices will be able to solve complex tasks such as predicting how chemicals react or cracking encrypted text. One of the main reasons that the machines are ...

After the passing of physicist Anthony Leggett, columnist Karmela Padavic-Callaghan remembers their personal connection with ...

When load increases steadily, so does friction, but in the realm of magnetization dynamics, things aren’t so simple.

The results are just what theory predicts, but when the theory clashes as strongly with everyday experience as this, ...

Phantom crane flies change the angle of their splayed legs to increase or reduce drag, helping them navigate varying winds.

Researchers found friction can occur without contact, driven by magnetic dynamics, and does not always increase with load. The effect could enable controllable, wear-free technologies.
