JILA physicists used an ultrafast laser and help from German theorists to discover a new semiconductor quasiparticle—a handful of smaller particles that briefly condense into a liquid-like droplet.

Physicists propose a modular quantum computer architecture that offers scalability to large numbers of qubits.

Wyatt Technology Corporation, the world leader in absolute macromolecular characterization instrumentation and software, has published a new whitepaper on characterizing molecular structure in synthetic and natural polymers by multi-angle light scattering.

New technique developed at MIT produces highly selective filter materials, could lead to more efficient desalination.

For years, researchers have worked to develop novel molecules for therapeutic or research purposes, and have relied on directed evolution as a powerful technique for generating molecules that exhibit the properties they want.

Top quarks are the heaviest and among the most puzzling elementary particles.

With more than 1,600 products using nanotechnology on the market, a team of undergraduate researchers at North Dakota State University (NDSU) is examining how people perceive such products and how these products might ultimately affect the environment.

University of Idaho professor’s project turns cow manure into biodegradable plastic.

Forget ketchup and mustard — Sriracha might be the world's new favorite condiment.

The unusual arrangement of cells in a chicken's eye constitutes the first known biological occurrence of a potentially new state of matter known as "disordered hyperuniformity."

Researchers are using fibres from fishing line and sewing thread to create inexpensive artificial muscles that could be used in medical devices, humanoid robots, prosthetic limbs, or woven into fabrics.

For the first time, an international team of astrophysicists, including Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory scientists, have unraveled how stars blow up in supernova explosions.
