Chalmers researchers have developed a simple, light-based platform to study the mysterious “invisible glue” that binds materials at the nanoscale. Gold flakes floating in salt water reveal how quantum ...

Scientists working at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider may be seeing the strongest hints yet of physics beyond the Standard Model — the decades-old theory that explains the fundamental particles and ...

Van der Waals forces represent a fundamental type of interaction between molecules. Named after the Dutch physicist Johannes Diderik van der Waals, these intermolecular forces include attractions and ...

Researchers may be on the brink of discovering evidence of a fifth fundamental force. As far as we know, at the most basic level, the universe is made up of fundamental particles and controlled by ...

Around the world, a quiet scientific revolution is rewriting the rules of medicine: mechanical forces are not just passive features of our bodies—they are active regulators of health, disease, and ...

Students will apply their knowledge of physical science concepts to create a lunar lander game using Scratch. They will use Vernier force and acceleration sensors to understand forces and integrate ...

Elite military forces are often romanticized as the epitome of resilience, strength, and determination. But what exactly determines whether a soldier has what it takes to become a member of the U.S.

Passages of the Solar System have only been established in three interstellar objects, but the construction of new telescopes is envisioned in the future where visiting aliens will not be something ...

Chief meteorologist Mark Dixon takes a look at the properties of the metal gallium during Aug. 3's Science Sunday.

Humans are one (small) step closer to traveling at faster-than-light speeds.
