By the late 1800s, the scientific world was buzzing with questions about electricity and light. Several researchers were ...

In this video, we explore the fundamental role of electrons in chemical reactions, rooted in quantum physics and the ...

What is the shape of an electron? If you recall pictures from your high school science books, the answer seems quite clear: an electron is a small ball of negative charge that is smaller than an atom.

Researchers have created a topological insulator that keeps its quantum properties stable even at higher temperatures, ...

High-order harmonic generation (HHG) provides a main route to generate attosecond (10-18 s) pulses, which have been considered “the world’s fastest film camera” for imaging the movement of electrons.

A team of researchers at the Max Born Institute have managed to fully characterize few-femtosecond-long light pulses tunable ...

Cryo-electron microscopy by University of Alabama at Birmingham researchers has exposed the structure of a bacterial virus with unprecedented detail. This is the first structure of a virus able to ...

Researchers have identified a previously unknown “hook-like” domain in the tail of the kinesin-2 motor protein that explains how these molecular machines select the right cargo inside cells.

The kinetics of collagen reprecipitation from solutions of salt-extracted calf dermis in the presence of small amounts of mucopolysaccharide and nucleic acids (0.005 per cent in the final reaction ...

Topological insulators usually only work at very low temperatures. Researchers at the University of Würzburg have now ...
