Scientists Create Diamond-Strong Glass
An international team of scientists led by researchers from China’s Yanshan University discovered that their creation, dubbed AM-III, is roughly as hard as diamonds and…
Watch “Acoustic Tweezers” Made of Sound Waves Pick Up and Hold a Tiny Sphere
Lexical lifting which seems to be the case has seen some incredible feats in the last few years, becoming sophisticated enough to hold and hold…
Scientists Find a Better Way to Turn Heat into Electricity by Reversing a Standard Rule
Engineers generally consider heat as “waste energy” because it is difficult to turn it into something efficient. However, researchers may change a new class of…
Opinion: We Need to do More about the Diversity Problem in Physics
It is no secret that STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) has a diversity problem. Social barriers prevent many people from pursuing a stem-related career…
New, Longest-Lived “Exotic Matter” Particle Ever Found has been Announced
A new and especially enchanting “extraterrestrial” particle has been discovered. Although new sub-atomic particles are now available so it is often difficult for interested amateurs…
Next-Generation Dark Matter Detectors will Study the Universe Like Never before
Big means are not always good but there may be some physics detector exceptions that confirm the rules. Especially if the goal is to detect…
Is Reality a Game of Quantum Mirrors? A New Theory Suggests it Might be
Imagine sitting down and picking up your favorite book. You look at the image on the front cover, run your fingers across the sleeves of…
Making Better Solar Cells by Cutting through the Noise
Cross-correlation noise spectroscopy was used by physicists to measure minute fluctuations in the electrical current flowing between materials inside silicon solar cells. The researchers discovered…
Light-bending Technique developed by Engineers to Improve Wavelength Conversion
