En-route to nuclear clocks, researchers have found a resonant mode in thorium atom nuclei with a low temperature coefficient - nuclear oscillators are ...

After the regulations went into effect, lightning over shipping lanes dropped by half almost overnight, per newly published ...

It is only the presence of microscopic suspended particles in water that allow it to freeze at the familiar 32 degrees Fahrenheit. These particles, known as ice nuclei, act as a sort of scaffolding to ...

Water molecules condense around nuclei to form clouds. (David Babb/Penn State ... In storm clouds, however, those additional ...

For decades, atomic clocks have been the pinnacle of precision timekeeping, enabling GPS navigation, cutting-edge physics ...

Abstract: Anthropogenic aerosols are thought to exert a significant indirect radiative forcing because they act as cloud condensation nuclei in warm cloud-forming processes and ice nuclei in cold ...

Newly released video shows U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Seattle, Washington, preparing a group of illegal, undocumented immigrants to be flown back to their home countries.

For decades, ship emissions steadily rose as increasing global trade drove higher ship traffic. Then, in 2020, new ...

A strange type of ice thought to dwell deep in the oceans of alien planets has finally been proven to exist. For the first time, researchers have directly observed a sort of hybrid phase of water ...

Plastic ice VII has the same cubic structure as regular ice VII, but as the name suggests it’s a little more flexible. While the molecules are still locked in a rigid cubic lattice, they can ...
