Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...

Like many people over 60 and thinking seriously about retirement, I’ve been paying closer attention to Social Security, and recent changes have made me concerned.

Reliable description of bond breaking remains a major challenge for quantum chemistry due to the multireferential character of the electronic structure in dissociating species. Multireferential ...

Whether or not Washington ever takes those stakes may matter less than what the rumors represent. We’re witnessing a fusion of industrial policy and market psychology unlike anything since the ...

Does quantum mechanics really reflect nature in its truest form, or is it just our imprecise way of describing the weird properties of the very small? A famous test that can help answer this question ...

When Jamie Gull graduated from Stanford University in 2007 with a master’s degree in aeronautics, there was one place he wanted to go next: the desert. The Mojave Desert, to be specific. A company ...

Extremely cold atoms have been nudged to self-magnify their quantum states so they can be imaged in unprecedented detail. This could help researchers better understand what quantum particles do in odd ...

Beneath every perfect wave is a formula of wind, swell, and seafloor. But for those who chase them, the ideal ride is part science, part soul. Carson’s words reflect something surfers have long ...

Sea surface temperatures in 2024 broke records and about a quarter of the world’s oceans are experiencing temperatures that qualify as a marine heat wave. By Delger Erdenesanaa Graphics by Harry ...

In recent years, physicists have been trying to better understand the behavior of individual quantum particles as they move in space. Yet directly imaging these particles with high precision has so ...

Abstract: Aiming at the limitations of a single wave simulation approach across various marine environments, and with the aim of enhancing the reliability and realism of wave 3D modelling in different ...
