From the beloved Tama, Japan’s stationmaster calico cat, to Garfield, the world-famous lasagna enthusiast, orange-colored felines have long captured hearts and imaginations. But behind their ...

Laser-driven ion acceleration has long been a powerful tool, capable of generating extreme energies in an instant. It has been hailed for applications ranging from cancer treatment to semiconductor ...

A research team from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) has devised a superconducting quantum computing prototype called Zuchongzhi-3. The prototype works on 105 qubits and 182 ...

The researchers demonstrated the membrane’s performance in lab-scale experiments, pictured, using a novel membrane to filter various solutions that were similar in content to the waste streams ...

The study looks at hydrogen-rich compounds formed at very high pressures by hydrogen gas — the dumbbell-shaped molecules — and the alkali metals cesium and rubidium. Similar compounds of strontium ...

Active galaxy 1ES 1927+654, circled, has exhibited extraordinary changes since 2018, when a major outburst occurred in visible, ultraviolet, and X-ray light. The galaxy harbors a central black hole ...

Quasicrystals (QCs) have a unique atomic arrangement that lacks periodicity, giving them unusual symmetries not found in regular crystals. Scientists have been exploring their quasiperiodic magnetic ...

If you think your Broadband speed is fast enough, let us tell you about the fastest internet in the world to make you feel worse. For years, intensive research has been carried out worldwide to ...
