An international team of physicists has studied how particles are produced in high-energy electron–proton collisions through the lens of entanglement entropy Entanglement entropy has emerged as a new ...

At ultracold temperatures, interatomic collisions are relatively simple, and their outcome can be controlled using a magnetic field. However, research by scientists led by Prof. Michal Tomza from the ...

Rubidium atoms can behave unpredictably during atomic collisions, especially when exposed to specific laser light. Researchers have now discovered that these tiny interactions can release unexpected ...

When supermassive black holes recoil from a collision, they can reach speeds of up to 1/10th the speed of light, new research suggests. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

Near the 100th anniversary of the discovery of ferroelectricity, so-called sliding ferroelectricity has been proposed and confirmed recently in a series of experiments that have stimulated remarkable ...

A new biography of Luis Alvarez captures the details but misses the drama in the career of a scientist whose work ranged from the Manhattan Project to the death of the dinosaurs. By Jennifer Szalai ...
