Electrical resistance is easy to notice and hard to pin down. Power lines shed energy as heat, and metals warm up when ...

Experimental atomic physicists have discovered there is a maximum amount of electrical resistance, or resistivity, that can ...

Certain substances can become magnetic when exposed to an external magnetic field. Magnetic susceptibility measures how ...

Heavy collisions Artist’s impression charged particle tracks streaming from a collision of two uranium nuclei overlaid on a sketch of the STAR detector at RHIC. The incoming uranium nuclei are shown ...

Ready to go: the Belle II experiment will run on Japan's SuperKEKB accelerator. (Courtesy: KEK) The first electron–positron collisions occurred at an upgrade to one of Japan’s premier particle-physics ...

Today, my colleagues reported a substantial new advance in our understanding of the Higgs boson, the particle that is responsible for giving mass to fundamental subatomic particles. These results are ...

The emergence of powerful computing technology enabling the manipulation of large volumes of data, combined with the development of sophisticated modelling and simulation technology, allowed composers ...

In a paper in Nature, the ALICE Collaboration 1 reports that data from high-energy collisions between protons can be used to investigate the little-understood nuclear forces between protons and ...
