Scientists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have discovered that atomic-scale substitutional dopants in ultra-thin two-dimensional (2D) materials can act as stable quantum systems ...

An international team of researchers, including scientists from Science Tokyo, has developed a five-dimensional Langevin model that accurately reproduces the complex fission fragment distributions and ...

Physicists have engineered photons that behave as if they inhabit a space far richer than the familiar three dimensions, revealing light-like particles with a strikingly high-dimensional character. By ...

The idea that a hidden fourth dimension could be woven into everyday reality is no longer just a science‑fiction trope. Leading theorists now argue that extra dimensions are not only compatible with ...

We live in a three-dimensional world. We perceive our world in three dimensions, we move around in three dimensions and, in a certain way, our imagination "thinks" in three dimensions. As such, it is ...

A fringe new theory suggests that time is the fundamental structure of the physical universe, and space is merely a byproduct. According to Gunther Kletetschka, a geologist — not a physicist, you’ll ...

University of Texas at Austin physicist Allan MacDonald was one of two winners of the international prize, given for ...

For more than a century, scientists have wondered why physical structures like blood vessels, neurons, tree branches, and ...
