Levitating objects with light

PHYSICS & MATH Nanoscale patterning could enable precise manipulation of objects on many scales Researchers at Caltech have designed a way to levitate and propel objects using only light, by creating specific nanoscale patterning on the objects' surfaces.

Air Frying: How does it work?

That's thermodynamics in your kitchen right there. Nutritional conscious eating is atop most everyone's list when it comes to living their best life.

The Multiverse: Theoretically Inevitable

Proof of an existing Multiverse is theoretically inevitable. The Universe is constantly expanding, and at an accelerated rate. Even with today's most advanced technology, the edge of the Universe could never be seen.

Earth: As Flat as an Ellipsoid Can Be

Another debunking of the flat earth theory We all know the Earth is round--right? Well, apparently not all of us. There is an actual group of people, the Flat Earth Society, who whole-heartedly believe that the earth is flat.

Physicists proposed fast method for printing nanolasers from rerovskites

An international research team has developed a new method of synthesizing miniature light sources. It is based on a special laser which produces millions of nanolasers from a perovskite film in a few minutes. Such lasers look like small disks, work at room temperature and have an tunable emission wavelength from 550 to 800 nm.

Untangling the black hole mess

Physicists discover a method on how to unscramble information embedded in black holes University of Maryland scientists provided information from an experiment about the use of quantum mechanics to obtain data inside a black hole which is contrary to modern physics that states that information will be lost forever after being consumed in a black hole.

Physicists discovers planet-like spinning electrons

Electrons are found to spin like planets Rutgers University-New Brunswick researchers discovered planet-like spinning electrons that could innovate solar cells, electronic displays, lasers, and in lighting.

Famous 'sandpile model' shown to move like a traveling sand dune

Researchers at IST Austria find new property of important physical model; results published in PNAS (Photo : Moritz Lang) The so-called Abelian sandpile model has been studied by scientists for more than 30 years to better understand a physical phenomenon called self-organized criticality, which appears in a plethora of real-life situations such as the coordinated firing of brain cells, the spread of forest fires, the distribution of earth quake magnitudes and even in the coordinated behavior of ant colonies.

Cryo-force spectroscopy reveals the mechanical properties of DNA components

Physicists from the University of Basel have developed a new method to examine the elasticity and binding properties of DNA molecules on a surface at extremely low temperatures. With a combination of cryo-force spectroscopy and computer simulations, they were able to show that DNA molecules behave like a chain of small coil springs. The researchers reported their findings in Nature Communications.

Scientists discover new type of magnet

A team of scientists has discovered the first robust example of a new type of magnet--one that holds promise for enhancing the performance of data storage technologies.
