When scientists study how materials behave under extreme conditions, they typically examine what happens under compression. But what occurs when you pull matter apart in all directions simultaneously?

For the first time, researchers have reported a new family of materials that maintains its conductivity in liquid, liquid ...

Translocator protein (TSPO) is highly conserved across the kingdoms of life and, in humans, is implicated in a variety of diseases. This integral mitochondrial membrane protein is undoubtedly ...

Metalworkers and metallurgists have long appreciated the ability to tailor the performance characteristics of steel (an alloy of iron and carbon), including their strength, hardness, ductility and ...

Magnetism is usually taught as a story of straight lines, with field arrows marching neatly from north to south. In a lab at Florida State University, that picture has just been shattered by a new ...

The beautiful symmetry of snowflakes masks the complex physics that governs how ice crystals grow and develop under different environmental conditions, explains Kenneth Libbrecht (Courtesy: ...
