The multimillion-dollar experiment that was years in the making comes as the federal government makes broad cuts to science ...

Scientists have developed a groundbreaking technique called RAVEN that can capture the full complexity of an ultra-intense ...

A groundbreaking achievement by physicists from Imperial College London has brought new insights into quantum physics by recreating the famous double-slit experiment in the dimension of time. Led ...

There was always a nagging caveat, however. In all of the efforts by scientists to control the unruly power of fusion, their experiments consumed more energy than the fusion reactions generated.

Fleming, Cao and Massey say that the success of the experiment paves the way for other investigations using quantum light—in the context of photosynthesis and beyond.

If there is one brand that can claim ownership of red, it’s Ferrari and for fall, creative designer Rocco Iannone kicked off the collection with a series of looks in that color that screamed ...

Blazar galaxy Marakarian 501 has a supermassive black hole at its center. This black hole shoots out powerful, fast light. But how?

Tomorrow, the U.S. Department of Energy is expected to announce that the era of fusion power is finally upon us: Scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, in California, have ...

I HAVE proposed 1 that coherent storage of absorbed light energy in optically non-active modes may be important in photosynthesis. For in this way energy could be transferred to electrons ...

A new study has tugged photosynthesis research in an interesting new direction, with a team at Sweden’s Lund University demonstrating how carefully spaced mirrors can be used to trap light and ...

Nuclear fusion is the process by which two light atomic nuclei combine to form a single heavier one while releasing massive amounts of energy.
