Scientists have pulled off a feat long considered out of reach: getting light to mimic the famous quantum Hall effect. In their experiment, photons drift sideways in perfectly defined, quantized steps ...
When we hear about moving objects with electricity, most of us imagine a "pulling force." Positive and negative charges ...
Tokamaks are circular machines that use strong magnets to trap superheated gas where fusion reactions take place. "NIIEFA is the first in Russia to manufacture and successfully test a full-size ...
Access to rare earths is absolutely crucial for defense and high-tech industries, and securing sufficient supply could either make or break U.S. national security.
MP Materials Corp., a rare-earth materials company based in Las Vegas, will establish a manufacturing facility in ...
Good afternoon and happy Thursday, Daily on Energy readers! We’re kicking off today’s newsletter with the latest goings-on in the ...
A 1.98-square-micrometer QR code, etched into ceramic thin film and verified by Guinness, showcases a new approach to ultra-dense, long-term data storage.
Fusion energy, an emerging technology that backers hope will one day generate electricity without producing long-lived ...
Earth-like planets have a thin crust, a large mantle (which contains a lot of molten magma), and a core. Inside these ...
China achieves a superconducting magnet of 35.6 teslas, 700,000 times stronger than Earth's magnetic field, setting a world record.
Abstract: A magnetic-levitation tool using a superconductor (Superconducting Assisted Machining: SUAM) is a promising technology that enables noncontact finishing of hollow or complex-shaped ...
Musk says the key to his moon mission is a device that was originally designed in the 1970s.
