Liquids and solutions are complex environments—think, for example, of sugar dissolving in water, where each sugar molecule ...

When a gas is highly energized, its electrons get torn from the parent atoms, resulting in a plasma—the oft-forgotten fourth ...

By building an atomic equivalent of the critical Josephson junction, scientists can now study how energy is lost and excitations form.

If a major disaster like Fukushima or Chernobyl ever happens again, the world would know almost straight away, thanks to an array of government and DIY radiation-monitoring programs running globally.

Using the world’s most powerful X-ray laser, scientists have filmed atoms performing an eternal quantum dance that never ...

How do you photograph something that moves so fast it can travel the circumference of the earth in 18 seconds? A UA physicist is hoping a $1.1 million award will allow him to modify an already ...

The discovery challenges basic assumptions about how metals solidify In A Nutshell Liquid metal contains stationary atoms: ...

Researchers have discovered that not all atoms in a liquid are in motion and that some remain stationary regardless of the ...

Scientists have uncovered that some atoms in liquids don't move at all—even at extreme temperatures—and these anchored atoms dramatically alter the way materials freeze. Using advanced electron ...
