Skyrmions, in which electron spins inside a magnet are arranged like vortices, are a key structure in next-generation spintronics technology. KAIST researchers have shown that skyrmions can form using ...

Nvidia's chips are improving at such a staggering pace that it defies any historical comparison. Why it matters: Without these gains — which are drawing increased attention as AI transforms society — ...

Scientists have achieved a historic first using lasers to study electron behaviour, revealing new insights into how light ...

Note: Articles may be assigned to more than one subject area, as a result the sum of the subject research outputs may not equal the overall research outputs. Actionable insights into research ...

What governs the speed at which raindrops fall, sediment settles in river estuaries, and matter is ejected during a supernova? These questions circle around one, deceitfully simple factor: the rate at ...

Theoretical physicists collaborate with OpenAI's artificial intelligence to solve complex calculations involving gluons and ...

STOCKHOLM (AP) — Three scientists at American universities won the Nobel Prize in physics Tuesday for research on subatomic quantum tunneling that lays the groundwork for better cellphones and faster ...

Where is physics headed? No one knows for sure, but Beyond the Quantum by Antony Valentini is a striking new book that reminds us what a big idea really looks like, finds Jon Cartwright ...

The Nature Index tracks primary research articles from 145 natural-science and health-science journals, chosen based on reputation by an independent group of researchers. The Nature Index provides ...

TODAY’S BEST image-generating artificial-intelligence (AI) models are remarkable. Ask OpenAI’s DALL-E 3, or its counterparts Midjourney and Stable Diffusion, to draw a penguin sipping on a vodka ...
