A stable graphene signal suggests some quantum particles can remember past interactions, a key step toward quantum computing.

Scientists question whether alarming reports of plastic particles in human organs are accurate or the result of laboratory contamination.

Several years ago, scientists discovered that a single microscopic particle could rock back and forth on its own under a ...

Auroras occur when solar wind collides with Earth’s magnetic field, creating dazzling lights. Learn why auroras appear in red ...

A recent study has uncovered compelling evidence suggesting that the climate effects of new particles in urban areas have been significantly underestimated. Particles play a crucial role in climate ...

Aerosols refer to fine solid or liquid particles suspended in the atmosphere, where they reside typically for days to weeks before falling to the ground or being washed out by rain or snow. They arise ...

In a twist on conventional wisdom, researchers have discovered that in ocean-like fluids with changing density, tiny porous particles can sink faster than larger ones, thanks to how they absorb salt.

But only in the last 70 years have we known for certain they were there. In 1956, physicists Clyde Cowan and Frederick Reines ...

The universe, with its vastness and complexity, continues to confound scientists. Recently, the detection of anomalous particles has pointed towards even more mysteries waiting to be unravelled. These ...

Some things are easier to achieve if you're not alone. As researchers from the University of Rostock, Germany have shown, this very human insight also applies to the most fundamental building blocks ...
