As the planet warms, many expected ecosystems to change faster and faster. Instead, a massive global study shows that species turnover has slowed by about one-third since the 1970s. Nature’s constant ...

Self-accelerating beams—shape-preserving bending beams—are attracting great interest, offering applications in many areas such as particle micromanipulation, microscopy, induction of plasma channels, ...

Claims that the oceans are now driving a new phase of global cooling have surged across social media, but they collide with a large and consistent body of scientific evidence. Ocean measurements from ...

In 1958, Aharonov and Bohm (AB) predicted that two parts of the wavefunction of an electron can accumulate a phase difference even when they are confined to a region in space with zero electromagnetic ...

In 1929, cosmologists discovered that the universe is expanding — that space-time, the fabric of the cosmos, is stretching. Then in 1998, light coming from exploding stars called supernovas suggested ...

In 1998, it was discovered that the expansion of the universe is accelerating, a finding that earned three astronomers the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2011, but new research from Oxford University has ...
