Entropy, the amount of molecular disorder, is produced in several systems but cannot be measured directly. A new equation sheds new light on how entropy is produced on a very short time scale in laser ...

Gravity is supposed to be the most familiar force in nature, yet at the deepest level it remains the least understood. A bold ...

In a new study published in Physical Review D, Professor Ginestra Bianconi, Professor of Applied Mathematics at Queen Mary University of London, proposes a new framework that could revolutionize our ...

Next-generation technology requires next-generation materials that can be tailored to exact mission requirements. Additive ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Liquid metals have long fascinated materials scientists due to their unique properties that bridge the gap between solid and liquid states of matter. These materials, which remain ...

Entropy is something very peculiar. Let's remember that all physical quantities are conserved: In any closed system, energy is conserved, matter is conserved, momentum is conserved. That means that ...
