The Pauli exclusion principle is a cornerstone of the Standard Model of particle physics and is essential for the structure ...

Science funding cuts in the UK are expected to be a "devastasting blow" for physics research, affecting international ...

A team of engineers and scientists has shown for the first time that a hard-X-ray cavity can provide net X-ray gain, with ...

In a major step into the future of energy, scientists have captured the most detailed view yet of the shockwaves that help ...

Condensed-matter physics and materials science have a silo problem. Although researchers in these fields have access to vast amounts of data – from experimental records of crystal structures and ...

Researchers have uncovered how atoms subtly rearrange themselves for up to a trillionth of a second before releasing ...

Hamburg-based researchers have developed a system that generates better X-ray pulses at the European X-Ray Free-Electron ...

Some of the X-ray radiation circulating in the cavity is allowed to escape downstream, providing a beam of monochromatic and coherent X-ray pulses. They have called their system X-ray Free-Electron ...

Synchrotron radiation has revealed a star map made by the ancient astronomer Hipparchus that was thought to be lost to time ...
