Human uptake of microplastic particles (MPs) is causing increasing health concerns, and there is mounting pressure to evaluate the associated risks. While MPs can be ingested, breathed in, or drank in ...

The photoelectric effect, first explained by Albert Einstein in 1905, laid the foundation for quantum mechanics. It occurs when high-energy light strikes atoms, releasing electrons. This phenomenon is ...

A team of researchers succeeded in adapting an AI system to reliably assist with making nanoparticle measurements which speeds up the research process significantly.

For the first time, researchers have been able to measure the quantum state of electrons ejected from atoms that have ...

Nanoparticle researchers spend most of their time on one thing: counting and measuring nanoparticles. Each step of the way, ...

Researchers at Argonne have discovered that superconducting nanowire photon detectors can also be used as highly accurate ...

Researchers have successfully simulated particle creation in an expanding universe using IBM's advanced quantum computers.
