A new algorithm can organize hundreds of atoms into pristine patterns—including a honeycomb lattice, a fractal called a Sierpiński triangle, and a lion’s head.

A new technique for reversing the evolution of a quantum system could become a key tool in quantum information technology.

Erin Flowers adapts laboratory courses for incarcerated students, an endeavor that she says is both challenging and rewarding.

The Second Annual “Gallery of Soft Matter Physics” offered up bananas, cereals, jams, and other treats as part of the science-filled buffet at this year’s APS March Meeting.

A phase-modulated lidar system can measure the speed of distant winds at submeter scales, potentially allowing detailed maps of turbulent flows.

The “capillarytron” lets researchers access mechanical properties of very dense suspensions.

Rama Govindarajan models how turbulence influences the growth of droplets in clouds, information relevant to understanding the influence of these billowy masses on climate.

Two teams demonstrate an innovative way to measure the states of spin-based qubits—a key task in quantum computing.

A novel crystalline material is readily grown from low-melting-temperature mixtures—a result that points toward a new route to above-room-temperature ferromagnets.

Vibrations are the main drivers of a mysterious process in which a liquid flow generates an electric current in the solid below it.
