These phenomena appear to break the most fundamental rules of physics. Experiments revealed materials that flow against gravity, systems where cooling increases energy, and effects that challenge ...

The CBSE Class 12 Physics syllabus 2025-26 is designed to test students’ understanding of core physical concepts and their ability to apply them in real-life situations. The syllabus includes major ...

Who is getting disintermediated when AI enters the gaming race? And where does a shake-up in the C-suite leave a new value ...

A possible alternative to active debris removal (ADR) by laser is ablative propulsion by a remotely transmitted electron beam (e-beam). The e-beam ablation has been widely used in industries, and it ...

Researchers at Wageningen University & Research (WUR) have defied long-standing material theories by developing a brand-new class of material known as a “compleximer.” This amber-colored substance ...

The 20th century was marked by the discovery of exotic states of matter. First, liquid helium was observed to flow without friction at extremely low temperatures, a phase now known as superfluid. Soon ...

Introduction to the physical principles underlying the electronic structure and the electronic and thermal properties of solids from macroscopic to nanometer dimensions. General quantum mechanics and ...

The observation of Aharonov–Bohm oscillations in nanoribbons of Bi 2 Se 3 opens the way for electronic transport experiments in nanoscale three-dimensional topological insulators. Present research on ...

Child’s play Nurseries or daycare centres can be a breeding ground for bugs and germs. (Courtesy: Shutterstock/Monkey Business Images) When I had two kids going through daycare, or nursery as we call ...

Here, there and everywhere Friction has an impact throughout our lives, whether it’s melting a layer of snow under our skis, helping blood flow through arteries, letting us play a violin, or even just ...

Variational quantum algorithms (VQAs) face scalability challenges, notably barren plateaus, where the loss landscape flattens with increasing system size. Here, the authors explore an analog VQA ...

A little more than a year ago, on a trip to Nairobi, Kenya, some colleagues and I met a 12-year-old Masai boy named Richard Turere, who told us a fascinating story. His family raises livestock on the ...
