In 1931, physicist Hans Bethe predicted that, in certain one-dimensional quantum systems, particles can bind together to form multi-particle states known as Bethe strings. Unlike ordinary molecules, ...

Within tiny halos of light clinging to a vanishingly thin wisp of optical fiber, scientist Jongmin Lee guides atoms like ...

A material thought to be nonmagnetic may reveal a hidden magnetic state when thinned to just a few atomic layers and placed ...

How can we predict the way a real material, such as a polymer, responds mechanically over timescales ranging from the ...

At daybreak I’d squeeze into a tiny Fiat with all the physicists it could fit. Maybe all scientists should be grappling with ...

The Hunga Tonga eruption may have triggered a surprising chemical reaction that destroyed some of the methane released into ...

Every second, particles zip through your body at nearly the speed of light. They rain down from a storm high in the sky, ...

Vikas Chandra, a longtime Meta AI executive who led AI work for the company's smart glasses, is joining Atoms.

A foundational chemistry concept found in textbooks for almost 100 years may have been taught incorrectly. Researchers say ...

Americans born between 1951 and 1980 are invisibly scarred by lead exposure that embedded the toxic metal into their bones. It can reemerge later in life.

Nearly a century after they were predicted by Nobel laureate Hans Bethe, a team led by quantum physi­cist Hanns-Christoph Nägerl has observed ...
