Atomic and molecular physics
The properties of friction change from one situation to the next, so a universal explanation doesn't exist.
The hydrogen compound requires extremely high pressure to maintain its extraordinary properties.
The experimental technique could help reveal the fundamental chemistry in photosynthesis and photovoltaic materials.
Scientists have developed a way to encourage a single electron to hop atop a silicon atom, a feat that may find applications in future nanoscale electronics.
The noble gas can help bring atoms together.
Scientists describe a physical system that is both below “absolute zero” and above “absolute hot” at the same time.
Vital work by scientists leads to one of the most important physics experiments in history.
