Physicists captured the first images of individual atoms freely interacting in space. The pictures reveal correlations among the 'free-range' particles that until now were predicted but never directly ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology's new cesium fountain clock is one of the most precise atomic clocks ever ...

Austrian researchers have uncovered a new property of graphene as removing atoms creates waves that make it more stretchable ...

Laser-cooled atomic gases, gases of atoms chilled to temperatures around absolute zero using laser technologies, have proved ...

Werner Heisenberg submitted a paper to Zeitschrift für Physik entitled ‘On quantum-theoretical reinterpretation of kinematic and mechanical relationships’, thus giving birth to quantum mechanics. In ...

According to a study published in Nature Physics, a TU Darmstadt-led research team at the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion ...

A silver single-atom chain demonstrates atomic-scale strain sensing and piezoresistive effects, advancing nanotechnology and ...

Many atomic nuclei have a magnetic field similar to that of Earth. However, directly at the surface of a heavy nucleus such ...

A scientific revolution is underway as researchers push to bring atomic-level precision, once reserved for small molecule ...

Historically, the vast majority of pharmaceutical drugs have been meticulously designed down to the atomic level.

Historically, small molecule drugs have been precisely designed down to the atomic scale. Considering their relatively large complex structures, nanomedicines have lagged behind. Researchers argue ...
