Filoviruses get their name from the Latin word "filum," meaning thread—a reference to their long, filamentous shape. This ...

Researchers cracked the code of nature's anti-reflective technology, manufacturing leafhopper-inspired particles that cut ...

Supercomputers step particles through a virtual world to give a history of their movement. The results are compared to physical experiments. High energy physicists run on a treadmill that keeps ...

A study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences has uncovered new clues to why some therapeutic proteins are so difficult to manufacture. The work—led by Nathan Lewis, PhD, ...

"I've always been fascinated by how we extract information from reality — even when we can’t fully define what reality is." Imagine a particle so ghostly that over 100 trillion of them could pass ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Amir is Founder of AI unicorn Avathon & Boeing/SC JV, SkyGrid. Recently, a friend asked me a question that's been floating around ...

A chain of plasmoids is created on the equatorial plane along the current sheet, where the particle density (left part) is higher. Here, magnetic reconnection takes place, accelerating particles to ...

Scientists have simulated how M87*, the supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy M87, powers its immense particle jet. The Frankfurt team’s FPIC code shows that magnetic reconnection, where ...

A hundred years before the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration released the first image of a black hole in 2019—located at the heart of the galaxy M87—astronomer Heber Curtis had already discovered ...

Tunable red to green emissions in upconversion nanoparticles allow precise identification of single particles, enabling accurate, long-term multicolor tracking in complex live cell environments.

CRISPR has the power to correct genetic mutations, but current delivery methods are either unsafe or inefficient, keeping the technology from reaching its full medical potential. With the power to ...
