So how do you get an electron to float on top of helium? To find out, Ars spoke with Johannes Pollanen, the chief scientific officer of EeroQ, the company that accomplished the new work. He said that ...

Scientists have developed a simulation that can predict how tens of thousands of electrons move in materials in real time, or natural time rather than compute time. Developed by a team from the ...

Making electrons flow like a liquid is difficult, but inside graphene researchers forced them to move so fast that they ...

Why your phone charges quickly one day but slowly the next, or why electric cars still take an hour or more to charge, is a ...

For the first time, scientists have used ultrafast X-ray flashes to take a direct image of a single electron as it moved during a chemical reaction. In the new study, published Aug. 20 in the journal ...

Superconductivity is a phenomenon where certain materials can conduct electricity with zero resistance. Obviously, this has ...

Scientists have found a way to control electrons in molecules using tailor-made terahertz light pulses, offering new possibilities for advanced technologies. Scientists at YOKOHAMA National University ...

A research team in Kiel has demonstrated a previously unknown effect in graphene—a single layer of carbon atoms whose ...
