On October 8, 2024, the field of physics was plunged into controversy. That day, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded for discoveries not involving black holes, cosmology, or strange new subatomic ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Scientists created an engine made of only silica particles suspended an electric field, and cranked temperatures up high enough to rival the Sun’s ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If there’s one law of physics that seems easy to grasp, it’s the second law of thermodynamics: Heat flows spontaneously from hotter ...

This tiny chip can withstand temperatures up to 1,500 degrees and could one day sit inside the core of a nuclear reactor, delivering critical real-time data. Reading time 2 minutes Generating nuclear ...
