Their results pave the way for developing advanced electronic devices that rely on nonmagnetic materials. For the first time, researchers in Japan have detected a giant anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in ...

The way people think of the Solar System has changed many times throughout history. Before the development of the telescope, these ideas were based on what could be seen with the naked eye. This ...

Velocity-time graphs show how the velocity (or speed) of a moving object changes with time. These graphs also show if the object is moving at a constant speed or accelerating, decelerating, or still.

In turbulent fluids, mixing of the components happens easily. However, in more viscous fluids such as those enclosed within cellular compartments, the intermixing of particles and molecules is much ...

Today marks GCSE results day for thousands of Somerset students who have been eagerly waiting to see if their years of hard work and revision have paid off. Pupils at schools across Somerset are ...

The speed of light, c, is not just a very large number. In modern physics it is a structural constant: the conversion factor ...

Quantum theory is one of the most important intellectual developments in the early twentieth century. The confluence of mathematics and quantum physics emerged arguably from Von Neumann's seminal work ...
