A persistent asymmetry in fusion exhaust has challenged researchers for years. New simulations show that plasma core rotation, working together with cross-field drifts, determines where particles land ...

Another theory held that the forces between two particles falls off exponentially in direct relationship to the distance between two particles and that the factor by which it drops is not dependent on ...

In terms of the Quasiparticle Model, a single particle travels through a sea of fermions, which include electrons, protons, or neutrons, and interacts persistently with its neighbours.

X-ray free electron lasers (XFELs) are particle accelerators that create pulses of light of extremely short duration, similar to that of some lasers used in eye surgery. Combined with the X-ray energy ...

Fusion energy promises a future of clean, nearly limitless power, but building reactors that can survive the extreme ...

Particle size and shape influence virtually every aspect of mining operations – from the transport and deposition of ...

Reliable sample preparation is crucial in mining for accurate analysis, regulatory compliance, and efficient resource extraction from heterogeneous materials.

Researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory are helping to pave a path for the eventual discovery of dark matter. With new approaches to measurement in the quantum realm, ...

The material exhibits an exceptionally low lattice thermal conductivity of ~0.18 W/m·K, placing it among the lowest known for crystalline solids.

An experiment measuring a single atom's recoil confirmed that observing a particle destroys interference, settling the ...

A portable detector the size of a cookie box reveals in real time the cosmic particles that pass through your body every ...

Think about the last professional video you watched—a commercial, a music video, a film trailer. Beyond the cinematography and editing, you probably noticed something else: the effects and transitions ...
