Fish, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and even a few mammals rely on magnetoreception for navigation. But the exact mechanism ...

Axions are hypothetical light particles that could solve two different physics problems, as they could explain why some ...

Three PPPL researchers have earned the prestigious Kaul Foundation Prize for their groundbreaking work in fusion stability.

For decades, physicists taught that superconductivity and magnetism could not share the same space. One state should destroy ...

A hands-on physics experiment challenges a common misconception, using a balloon and a drone to reveal what really happens according to the laws of physics.

Using ultracold atoms and laser light, researchers recreated the behavior of a Josephson junction—an essential component of ...

A new technique allows complex interactions in materials to be simulated using Monte Carlo simulations thousands of times ...

Type One Energy, a University of Wisconsin-Madison nuclear fusion spinoff company, is partnering with the Tennessee Valley ...

Researchers at TU Wien have developed a one-dimensional “quantum wire” using a gas of ultracold atoms. In this system, both ...

I have the facts to back it up. You may think you know physics but I’m here to tell you, you don’t. Physics works differently to how you think it does. Our researchers and writers have turned their ...

For the first time, researchers in China have demonstrated a high-temperature superconducting diode effect, which allows a supercurrent to flow in both directions. Published in Nature Physics, the ...

An international team has obtained the first-ever experimental evidence of electrical behavior that mimics a Josephson junction with two superconductors even though only one was present.
