Tiny silica nanoparticles engineered to seek out prostate cancer caused tumor cells to self-destruct and supercharged the ...

But such measurements are notoriously challenging: the instruments used are themselves governed by quantum laws, and their interaction with particles can alter the very properties they are meant to ...

Scientists have observed a unique particle that moves easily one way, yet resists at 90 degrees. These semi-Dirac fermions were observed using their energy signature in a topological metal. Particles ...

Small particles from tires inhibited the growth and caused adverse behavioral changes in organisms found in freshwater and coastal estuary ecosystems, two new research papers found. Small particles ...

For decades, scientists have explored the enigmatic world of fundamental particles, uncovering the building blocks of our universe. But what if some of these particles, once deemed impossible, ...

Scientists still don’t know where ghostly particles called neutrinos originate. A distant galaxy could be a potential source.

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. The Universe is out there, waiting for you to discover it. If you pump more and more energy into a massive particle, it moves ...

While science has a solid grasp on calculating drag and resistance on microscopic spherical objects, particles like dust, microplastics, and viruses are rarely spherical. A new study re-analyzes a ...
