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

A wave breaks on the shore, sending up splashes of water and spray and creating eddies in the surrounding air. However, the digital simulation of this everyday natural occurrence is anything but ...

Engineers at Northwestern University have unveiled the behavior of single microscopic particles when they unite.

The purpose of the project is to simulate an ideal gas on a VGA monitor to perform calculation when the ideal gas particles collide with each other or within the edge of the VGA monitor screen. The ...

The generation of fusion energy utilizes the fusion reaction that occurs inside a high-temperature plasma. In order to achieve the generation of fusion energy, we confine plasma in the magnetic field ...

Paul M. Sutter is an astrophysicist at SUNY Stony Brook and the Flatiron Institute, host of "Ask a Spaceman" and "Space Radio," and author of "How to Die in Space." Sutter contributed this article to ...

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