Scientists are probing topological insulators with circularly polarized light to reveal their many secrets. These exotic materials have potential for quantum computing and other technologies. They ...

Scientist have succeeded in characterizing the interface between an elastic-plastic material and a light material under acceleration. Arindam Banerjee, an associate professor of mechanical engineering ...

Material science, at its core, is an interdisciplinary field focusing on the discovery and design of new materials. It combines elements of physics, chemistry and engineering to understand and ...

A strand of spaghetti snaps easily, but an exotic substance known as nuclear pasta is an entirely different story. Predicted to exist in ultradense dead stars called neutron stars, nuclear pasta may ...

We are entering a new era in science — the fourth paradigm, according to Kristin Persson, a professor in materials science at the University of California in Berkeley, United States. The first ...

Jason Lindsey, a nationally recognized STEM educator and science communicator, shared several engaging science experiments ...

For a long time, material development has focused on enhancing performance and reducing costs. Efforts have been directed toward making products lighter, tougher, better insulated, more beautiful, ...

Holiday cheer met hands-on learning Saturday when Jason Lindsey — better known as “Mr. Science” — brought festive science fun to the Public Library of Youngstown and Mahoning County. Nearly 50 ...

Abstract In nineteenth‐century America, strength of materials, an engineering science, focused on empirical research that yielded practical tools about how to predict the behavior of a wide variety of ...

When the COVID-19 pandemic shut down experiments at the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory early last year, Shambhu Ghimire's research group was forced to find another way to ...
