Scientists have discovered that electrons in solar materials can be launched across molecules almost as fast as nature allows, driven by tiny atomic vibrations.

Electrons can be "kicked across" solar materials at almost the fastest speed nature allows, scientists have discovered, ...

Interstellar travel captures the imagination, but the laws of physics impose severe limits on what is possible. Einstein’s theory of relativity sets a cosmic speed limit that prevents anything from ...

Electrons in solar materials can be launched across molecules almost as fast as nature allows, thanks to tiny atomic vibrations acting like a “molecular catapult.” In experiments lasting just 18 ...

We all know that stars radiate light and much more. But radiation belts can also surround many other celestial bodies, such ...

In our latest episode of Lexicon, we sit down with Dr. Lulu Zhao, an ...

A tiny burst of motion inside a molecule may be enough to shove an electron across a solar material almost as fast as nature ...

When NASA’s DART spacecraft deliberately crashed into the asteroid moonlet Dimorphos, it did more than change the asteroid’s local orbit — it slightly shifted the path of the entire asteroid pair ...

Analysis of the tail of 3I/Atlas reveals that it contains an anomalous proportion of methanol, a class of alcohol used in fuels.

Scientists at the University of Cambridge have revealed a new mechanism that allows electrons to move across solar materials at new speeds ...

Despite significant scientific advancement over the last decades, the universe still finds new ways to surprise us. Every ...
