Scientists have transformed enigmatic cell structures, called vaults, into storage units for messenger-RNA molecules made in ...

The movement of waves, patterns that carry sound, light or heat, through materials has been widely studied by physicists, as ...

Abstract: Tensegrity structures are becoming widely used in robotics, such as continuously bending soft manipulators and mobile robots to explore unknown and uneven environments dynamically.

One of the great successes of 20th-century physics was the quantum mechanical description of solids. This allowed scientists to understand for the first time how and why certain materials conduct ...

Abstract: New concepts to generate extremely high output power with ultrashort pulse duration are developed. At first, an oversized coaxial Cherenkov generator with a profiled and extended slow wave ...

Latrenda Knighten has always liked math. As a child, she remembers breezing through timed tests ‒ high speed, low stakes assignments that challenge students to complete a number of simple problems in ...

Archaeologists excavating a Pompeii site uncovered the secret behind the longevity of ancient Roman structures: a unique concrete mixture that could chemically repair itself over time. A recent study, ...
