Condensed matter physics, which analyzes the behavior of electrons in organized solid matter, has been treated as a completely separate field of study from soft matter physics, which deals with ...

Thought experiments can be extremely powerful; after all, pretty much everything that [Einstein] came up with was based on thought experiments. But when a thought experiment turns into a real ...

An elegant new equation identifies the surprisingly orderly, mathematical way in which things break, shatter, and fall apart.

Physicists in the US have gained new insights into one most of the basic phenomena in physics -- the melting of a solid. Arjun Yodh and colleagues at the University of Pennsylvania and Swarthmore ...

Scientists at the Swiss Nanoscience Institute and the Department of Physics at the University of Basel have developed a new method that has enabled them to image magnetic fields on the nanometer scale ...

Paper packaging is a sustainable alternative to plastic. However, as it is permeable to air, food packaged in paper loses its ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I write about physics, science, academia, and pop culture. One of the dumber assertions that always turns up in arguments about ...

Tangled chains lead to shear thickening Simulations showing the emergence of chains of particles in a suspension. The image on the left shows isolated chains in a suspension with a relatively low ...
