Scientists in the United States have created a small device that produces a tiny electrical signal from Earth’s natural rotation. Although the voltage is extremely small, the experiment shows that ...

Physicists at NASA and Princeton generate electricity from the Earth's rotation: could wind energy be our energy source of the future?

Researchers have developed a powerful computational framework that shows how carefully optimized nanotube shapes can amplify ...

Quantum electrodynamics was put to the test with highly charged uranium ions To put one of physicists’ most important theories to the test, scientists go to extremes. Extremely strong electromagnetic ...

Doctoral student Matheus Azevedo Silva Pessôa, a nanofluids researcher, developed the tool in collaboration with his fellow students in Professor Walter Reisner’s Nanobiophysics lab. Researchers from ...

"We always looked at how physics influenced biology, but at some point, we realized that biology might also be influencing physics," says first author Ellard Hunting, a biologist at the University of ...
