Einstein's Genius Proven

Physicists prove the equivalence of matter and energy in a large-scale computational effort.


Breakthrough Unlocks Secret Of Plasmas

University of British Columbia researchers have developed a technique that brings scientists a big step closer to unlocking the secrets of the most abundant form of matter in the universe.


Gas Memory Could Enhace Entanglement

Quantum entanglement, which Einstein dubbed "spooky action at a distance", would be the perfect way to communicate data – if technical hurdles could be overcome.


Spinning Water Droplets Behave Like Black Holes

By magnetically levitating water droplets, and using a "liquid electric motor" technique to spin them, researchers can investigate how the droplets change shape. Rather than being just a curious experi...


New Mechanism for Superconductivity

Los Alamos National Laboratory researchers have posited an explanation for superconductivity that may open the door to the discovery of new, unconventional forms of superconductivity.


Using Sunlight More Efficiently

Researchers at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in Golden, Colo have developed a way for low-cost solar cells to more efficiently convert sunlight into electricity.
