Altermagnets are a newly recognized class of antiferromagnets whose magnetic structure behaves very differently from what is ...

Changing just one atom in a COVID-19 vaccine lipid redirects delivery from the liver to the spleen, improving tumor ...

A 40-atom gold nanocluster breaks from gold's signature dense packing, forming square atomic planes with a central channel that accelerates electron relaxation about 80x.

Traditionally, X-ray methods require at least 10,000 atoms to generate a detectable signal. This is because the X-ray signal ...

Physicists have finally done what once sounded like science fiction: they have read the X-ray “fingerprint” of a single atom, isolating the signal of one of nature’s smallest building blocks from the ...

A new microscopy technique allows scientists to see single-atom-thick boron nitride by making it glow under infrared light.

Researchers from the University of Edinburgh and NVIDIA have introduced a new method that helps large language models reason ...

Liquids and solutions are complex environments—think, for example, of sugar dissolving in water, where each sugar molecule ...

Paul Sutter explores how ancient creation myths and modern cosmology answer the same questions, framing the Big Bang as a scientific creation story rooted in observation and theory ...

Scientists at the RIKEN Center for Emergent Matter Science (CEMS) in Japan have discovered a way to make a superconducting thin film from iron telluride, which is surprising because it is not normally ...

Many great discoveries have emerged from the "twilight" state between wakefulness and sleep. It's possible to use this state ...

The study reveals strain-tunable gas sensing in Ag- and Au-doped SnSe2 monolayers, highlighting their potential for ...
