Samuel Ajayi graduated with a first class degree from the University of Ibadan, a masters in Radiation and Health Physics from the same university and a PhD in Physics, with specialisation in ...

Physicists captured the first images of individual atoms freely interacting in space. The pictures reveal correlations among the 'free-range' particles that until now were predicted but never directly ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology's new cesium fountain clock is one of the most precise atomic clocks ever ...

Austrian researchers have uncovered a new property of graphene as removing atoms creates waves that make it more stretchable ...

We have a responsibility to ensure that our discoveries are used in the public interest. That isn’t always easy.

Laser-cooled atomic gases, gases of atoms chilled to temperatures around absolute zero using laser technologies, have proved ...

The mechanism that stabilizes new ferroelectric semiconductors also creates a conductive pathway, which could make them ...

Atomic-scale imaging reveals that chalcogen atoms play a crucial role in Cooper pairing in Fe-based superconductors, offering new insights into high-Tc superconductivity mechanisms. Superconductivity ...

One longstanding problem has sidelined life-saving drugs, stalled next-generation batteries, and kept archaeologists from ...

Many atomic nuclei have a magnetic field similar to that of Earth. However, directly at the surface of a heavy nucleus such ...

The achievement represents a major step forward, potentially unlocking innovations across numerous fields that rely on ...
