A challenge in plasma physics has been to understand multi-scale coupling, a process where particle-level turbulence scales ...

The Inouye Solar Telescope captured magnetic, silk-like "stripes" on the solar surface called photospheric striations.

A puzzling form of superconductivity that arises only under strong magnetic fields has been mapped and explained by a ...

The region of space dominated by Earth's magnetic field is the magnetosphere. Observations have shown that, within this ...

As the demand for more secure data transmission increases, conventional communication technologies are facing limitations ...

At the edge of two exotic materials, scientists have discovered a new state of matter called a "quantum liquid crystal" that ...

It won’t make its way into quantum computers, but it could help us understand why the universe is filled with matter.
