We just got the clearest snapshot yet of the first light that streamed through the Universe. The results? We now have a clearer window into the infancy of the Universe, revealing with greater ...

When light passes through a material, the spatial arrangement of the material’s atoms can cause the light to undergo reflection, refraction, dispersion, or diffusion. Researchers from Heriot ...

Knowing when to plant hyacinth bulbs is the secret to a successful bloom. If you plant too early or too late, the bulbs won't have time to develop roots or go through an important dormancy period that ...

New research reveals light can behave as a supersolid, paving the way for advancements in quantum computing and optical technologies. In a breakthrough, Italian scientists have successfully ...

A supersolid is a special type of matter that flows like a liquid but has a solid-like structure. Until now, scientists had only seen this state in extremely cold gases. This new experiment proves ...

Other unsolved mathematical mysteries are akin to the branches of trees. The trees themselves—fields within the wider subject of math —are strong and towering, rooted firmly in established findings.
