On March 11, PPPL opened its new Quantum Diamond Lab, a space devoted to studying and refining the processes involved in using plasma, the electrically charged

Cant wait for the next Star Trek movie?    Okay, this doesnt have Zoe Saldana but its still pretty terrific -  the first movie ever of carbon atoms moving along the edge of a graphene crystal.

Researchers from Utrecht University, Harvard Department of Chemistry & Chemical Biology, and Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have reported on a previously obscure method to enhance the selectivity of catalytic reactions.

Scientists report the first look at electrons moving in real-time in liquid water; findings open up a whole new field of experimental physics. In an experiment akin to stop-motion photography, scientists have isolated the energetic movement of an electron while “freezing” the motion of the much l

MIT researchers demonstrate the ability to control the dancing patterns of tiny magnetic bits in a nonlinear manner, akin to how skilled guitar players manipulate guitar strings. 

Researchers developed a more controlled way of making nickelates, a material that could potentially help pinpoint the key qualities that enable high-temperature superconductivity.

<p>Researchers from The University of Texas at Austin and MIT have developed a pioneering method to precisely manipulate ultrafast spin waves in antiferromagnetic materials using tailored light pulses.</p>
