This process works best when the antiprotons and positrons have very low kinetic energies (temperatures) when combined. If the energy is too high, many antiatoms will be escape the trap. So, it is ...

The Pentagon’s push to field laser weapons has shifted from laboratory curiosity to operational reality, with recent tests ...

With the help of carbon nanotubes and laser light, this machine can create immensely powerful X-rays on a microchip, ...

Physicists have now demonstrated a particle accelerator so small it fits inside a single molecule, shrinking one of science’s ...

Aerosols are tiny particles of liquid or solid material that drift through the air and are constantly present in our surroundings. Some are big enough to spot, like spring pollen, while others, ...

The two stars in the nearby system ZTF J2130 are spiraling toward a catastrophic supernova. In the meantime, scientists are ...

In January, a team led by Jim Schuck, professor of mechanical engineering at Columbia Engineering, developed a method for ...

From pitmasters to paper towels, there are many factors which make or break a barbecue restaurant. These 12 tips will help ...

A new architecture replaces traditional bottlenecks with a passive, single-shot light-speed operation that could become the ...

As part of the QuNET project, researchers have demonstrated how quantum key distribution works reliably via hybrid and mobile channels. The results are milestones for sovereign, quantum-secured ...

Modern warfare faces a critical challenge as GPS becomes unreliable due to jamming and spoofing. The Pentagon is exploring ...

UT researchers have made rare measurements of exotic nuclear decay that reshape how scientists think heavy elements form in extreme cosmic events. You can’t have gold without the decay of an atomic ...
