ON attempting to correlate the electrical double-refraction (Kerr effect) of gases and vapours which has been measured by Leiser, Hansen and Szivessy, with the optical anisotropy of the molecules ...

Talks at the APS are very hit and miss — especially for someone like me who wants a gentle introduction to a field rather than a full-on blitz of data and equations. However, some talks are pure ...

Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) are fascinating states of matter that emerge when atoms or molecules are cooled to extremely ...

Titan, the largest moon of Saturn, has defied one of the most fundamental rules of chemistry, a new study has found. In a ...

Note: This video is designed to help the teacher better understand the lesson and is NOT intended to be shown to students. It includes observations and conclusions that students are meant to make on ...

Scientists at JILA, a joint institute of the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the University of Colorado at Boulder, have applied their expertise in ultracold atoms and lasers to ...

A new study reveals that Saturn’s moon Titan hosts bizarre chemistry where water-like and oil-like molecules can mix, hinting ...

The first stable quantum gas of molecules with large electric dipole moments has been made by physicists in the US. Unlike other quantum gases, the molecules interact with each other over relatively ...
