Erasable electric fields written by laser light onto crystal surfaces can trap, align, and release living cells without ...

Research shows that a phenomenon called St. Elmo’s Fire, which occurs during thunderstorms, may be much more common than ...

The applications of ultrathin, conductive films such as those made of graphene have many applications, but it's been thought ...

Building functional human muscle in the laboratory has long been a goal of regenerative medicine, but one stubborn obstacle remains: real muscle is not just a mass of cells. Its strength and function ...

For the first time, a team of US researchers has used sensors containing highly excited Rydberg atoms to detect signals from ...

Lightning sparked almost 60% of the wildfires—and those blazes accounted for 93% of the total area burned. Now a ...

Because the sparking happens so uniformly across the branches they observed, the team suspects the phenomenon scales up massively. Tens to hundreds of leaves on every treetop under a thunderstorm ...

Sifting through 180,000 observations, the team found a single event. We may have detected a whistler wave on the Red Planet.

For many residents, it's been a long, cold, dark week.

Scientists have pulled off a feat long considered out of reach: getting light to mimic the famous quantum Hall effect. In ...

With their playoff hopes hanging in the balance, Jupiter Links’ Tom Kim stood on the 14th tee with the hammer in play. One ...
