Superconductivity is a phenomenon where certain materials can conduct electricity with zero resistance. Obviously, this has ...

Scientists have predicted new physics governing compression of water under a high-gradient electric field. Physicists found that a high electric field applied to a tiny hole in a graphene membrane ...

Researchers in McGill's Department of Physics have developed a new device that can trap and study DNA molecules without touching or damaging them. The device, which uses carefully tuned electric ...

A static electric field can be used to manipulate the superconducting state of metallic superconducting thin films, according to new experiments by researchers in Italy. The effect, which was first ...

Water has always responded well to sunlight, evaporating faster under the sun than when heated by other energy sources. For years, scientists knew this happened but didn’t fully understand why. Now, a ...

As the Parker Solar Probe ventures closer to the sun, we are learning new things about our home star. In a new study, physicists led by the University of Iowa report the first definitive measurements ...

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...

"Previous models required you to mechanically control molecules to trap them," Pessôa explained. "You have to confine the ...

Protons might be stretchier than they should be. The subatomic particles are built of smaller particles called quarks, which are bound together by a powerful interaction known as the strong force. New ...

Safe and effective An ultrathin implant placed directly on the spinal cord delivers a carefully controlled electrical current across the injured area. This electrical field treatment improved recovery ...

Paul Sutter is an astrophysicist at The Ohio State University and the chief scientist at COSI science center. Sutter is also host of Ask a Spaceman and Space Radio, and leads AstroTours around the ...
