Supercomputers are rewriting the rules of quantum-materials science — one exaflop at a time. Quantum materials promise faster ...

Researchers at the Institute for Molecular Science (IMS) have definitively resolved a two-decade-long controversy regarding ...

Scientists have filmed an electron in motion for the first time, using a new technique that will allow researchers to study the tiny particle's movements directly. Previously it was impossible to ...

In this video, we explore fundamental concepts about the atom and the forces that govern it. **CHAPTERS** 0:00 - Why is the ...

A pulse of light sets the tempo in the material. Atoms in a crystalline sheet just a few atoms thick begin to move—not ...

Scientists have captured the first ever photo of an electron’s whizzing orbit within a hydrogen atom, thanks to a unique new microscopy technique. Seeing inside the tiniest bits of matter is a ...

Scientists used an ultrafast X-ray laser to follow the impact of a single electron moving within a molecule during an entire chemical reaction. (Nanowerk News) Valence electrons, located in the ...

An international consortium of scientists, initiated by Reinhard Kienberger, Professor of Laser and X-ray Physics at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), several years ago, has made significant ...

Here’s the world’s first video of an electron in motion, showing how an electron rides on a light wave after having just been pulled away from an atom. Electrons move so fast, it’s almost impossible ...

Normally, noise is something we scientists try to avoid. In the most advanced physics experiments, the goal is usually to measure something new. If you ever ask the experimenters why it took them so ...
