Using the world's most powerful particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider, scientists have found that the quark-gluon ...

Several years ago, scientists discovered that a single microscopic particle could rock back and forth on its own under a ...

Scientists didn’t understand why independently oscillating microscopic particles suddenly begin moving in perfect sync when grouped together. Researchers showed that fluid-driven hydrodynamic ...

Compressible micropolar fluid dynamics is an advanced field that extends classical fluid mechanics by incorporating microstructural effects. This framework accounts for both the conventional ...

A new computational analysis supports the idea that photons (a.k.a. particles of light) colliding with heavy ions can create a fluid of 'strongly interacting' particles. In a new paper, they show that ...

In its first moments, the infant universe was a trillion-degree-hot soup of quarks and gluons. These elementary particles ...

To melt a solid, heat it. To freeze a liquid, cool it. It's simple—except when it isn't, because quantum mechanics can flip even the intuitive logic of melting and freezing on its head. Physicists ...
