A team of scientists from the University of Notre Dame is sending a physical science experiment to the International Space Station (ISS) to better understand bubble dynamics on nanostructured surfaces ...

Analytical and numerical analysis gives the first indications of how physically useful information can be extracted from two-colour pump probe experiments, and how it can be distinguished from the ...

Physical-collapse theories have long offered a natural solution to the central mystery of the quantum world. But a series of increasingly precise experiments are making them untenable. How does ...

Who should be spared pain, hurt or disappointment, and who should be harmed? This internal dilemma accompanied the participants of the Milgram experiment, say experts from SWPS University. They have ...
