St. Augustine's wooden school house is still standing tall thanks to an unusual addition.

Detecting high-energy particles is essential for exploring the fundamental structure of matter. Particle accelerators propel charged particles close to the speed of light, smashing them into targets ...

The rotation of the Earth's inner core is tied to the planet's overall rotation. Changes in the core's structure or movement can influence how fast or slow the Earth spins on its axis. Even minute ...

Scientists suggest Earth's inner core may have changed shape over the past 20 years, potentially affecting the planet's ...

From the Bronze age to the Industrial Revolution and beyond, the discovery and development of new materials has been a driving force in human history.

Researchers have discovered that superconducting nanowire photon detectors can also be used as highly accurate particle detectors, and they have found the optimal nanowire size for high detection ...

The T-Flight is a Hyperloop-inspired system that combines maglev technology — which uses powerful electromagnets to literally ...
