PHYSICS & MATHBroccoli, to some people, is troublesome in taste but undeniably beautiful in appearance. Researchers found the reason behinds its beauty.
Physicists finally figured out why despite being a nonstick pan, food still gets stuck on them. Their findings could help refine some industrial processes.
Scientists looked at the skin-deep sidewinder snakes to understand how these snakes could navigate sandy surfaces, like the deserts in Africa, the Middle East, and North America.
New research shows superconductivity behavior when tri-layer graphene is used with a magic angle. Researchers used two sheets of carbon allotropes -- graphene, stacked atop each other as it morphs into an unconventional superconductor that allows electric currents to pass through with no resistance or energy waste.
Most naturally-formed diamonds are from the Earth's mantle, generally understood to be formed as carbon is exposed to extreme temperature and pressure. A new study looks at the effects of a new parameter - electric fields - in the formation of these precious minerals.
A new material, classified as a perovskite, can reportedly convert sunlight to electricity as a potentially cheaper and more scalable alternative to today’s silicon-based solar cells.
Butterflies create a pocket with their wings that added a thrust to take off. Scientists believe that understanding this can help in improving the design of flapping drones.
Astronomers from the University of Montreal (UdeM) discovered that the core mass for exoplanet WASP-107b is a lot lower than previously thought necessary to form giant gas planets such as Saturn and Jupiter.
Cell velocity has long been speculated to be affected by the adhesive potential of the surface underneath it, although the exact mechanisms remain unknown. Now, a new study has answered this decades-long question.
