Through a combination of high-pressure experiments and optical spectroscopy, physicists have revealed new insights into the ...

A bullet-speed experiment reveals that the Earth's inner core may be softer and more dynamic than previously thought.

Scientists at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory are developing the next generation of solid-fuel ramjet (SFRJ) propulsion, ...

At this point, it is hardly a surprise to learn that even top scientific journals publish a lot of low-quality work — not just solid experiments that happen, by bad luck, to have yielded conclusions ...

In 2004 researchers reported the first clear evidence for superfluidity in solid helium-4. However, Matthew Chalmers describes recent experimental and theoretical work that has brought the very ...
