Researchers from North Carolina State University have used laser ablation to create ultra-stretchable, superomniphobic materials without the use of harsh chemical solvents. The materials—which are ...

In 1927, Albert Einstein and Neils Bohr debated the nature of what’s known as complementarity—the idea that a photon’s dual wave-like and particle natures can’t be measured at the same time. Now, two ...

Laser experiments that appeared in short video clips show light interactions with objects. Trump threatens to block the opening of a bridge between Ontario and Michigan in ongoing spat with Canada ...

When two black holes merge or two neutron stars collide, gravitational waves can be generated. They spread at the speed of light and cause tiny distortions in space-time. Albert Einstein predicted ...

A thought experiment that was at the heart of an argument between famed physicists Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr in 1927 has finally been made real. Its findings elucidate one of the core mysteries ...

My little theory is that the concept of “imprinting” in psychology can just as easily be applied to programming: Much as a baby goose decides that the first moving life-form it encounters is its ...

A strange new phase of ice has been discovered during experiments with the world's largest X-ray laser. Meet ice XXI, a bizarre phase that forms at room temperature, under extreme pressure. Ice XXI is ...

In this video, a powerful laser is tested on different colored balloons with surprising results. A black balloon pops almost instantly under the laser beam, while a white or clear balloon resists ...

TL;DR: Scientists have long been fascinated by the vibrant colors and intricate structures found in the feathers of birds like the Indian Peafowl (commonly known as the peacock). A new study has shed ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. In a discovery that could reshape how we view and understand the human brain, researchers have successfully passed a laser beam ...

The first light to pass through a human head may mark the start of a brain scan revolution. In a discovery that could reshape how we view and understand the human brain, researchers have successfully ...

When arriving at the Tiny Desk, Ibarra was poised, gracious and a little reserved. We could tell she was taking in the moment that she would later call "surreal." But as soon as she got situated ...
