Colorful church windows, beads on a necklace and many of our favorite plastics share something in common—they all belong to a state of matter known as glasses. School children learn the difference between liquids and gases, but centuries of scholarship have failed to produce consensus about how to ...
(Phys.org) —A team of physicists working at IFISC in Palma de Mallorca, Spain has used a computer simulation originally designed to model the transition of iron between magnetized states to create a model to do something similar for voting patterns in the United States. In their paper published in ...
If Lytro's first camera offered us a sneak peek at the promise of light field photography, the company's second-generation product swings those doors
People buy cases mainly to protect their precious phones, but very few offer functional versatility, and you're often forced to give them up when you
DARPA's recently announced Hand Proprioception and Touch Interfaces (HAPTIX) program aims to develop more lifelike prosthetic limbs that bring some sense of...

WELL begun; half done. That proverb—or, rather, its obverse—encapsulates the problems which have dogged civil nuclear power since its inception. Atomic energy is...
Japanese scientists are working on a concept to build carbon-neutral, self-sufficient floating cities
(Phys.org) —Recent insight and discovery of a new class of quantum transition opens the way for a whole new subfield of materials physics and quantum technologies.
(Phys.org) —Astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have applied a new image processing technique to obtain near-infrared scattered light photos of five disks observed around young stars in the Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes database. These disks are telltale evidence for newly formed ...
A team of researchers led by Robert Quimby at the Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe (Kavli IPMU) has announced the discovery of a galaxy that magnified a background, Type Ia supernova thirtyfold through gravitational lensing. This is the first example of strong gravitational ...
Back at CES, Intel made a big deal of the fact that it could squeeze a Linux-based PC with Bluetooth and WiFi into the size and shape of an SD card.
The Solar Roadways project has released photos of an (almost) completed parking lot installation at its Idaho electronics lab, and is dipping into crowd-fun...
