A distant supernova appears multiple times in the sky after its light bends through a galaxy. The strange effect may reveal clues about dark energy.

This video provides a clear summary of Chapter 7 in electrodynamics. We review the most important concepts, equations, and physical ideas to help students reinforce their understanding and prepare for ...

Electricity in a circuit doesn’t behave the way many people imagine. Instead of electrons carrying energy all the way from the battery to the bulb, the energy actually travels through electric fields ...

For more than 40 years, scientists have known that the quantum Hall effect impacts electrons in strong magnetic fields, but it turns out light also follows the fundamental phenomenon.

Research led by scientists at Washington State University has revealed insights on how plants form a microscopic landscape of proteins crucial to photosynthesis, the basis of Earth's food and energy ...

Researchers have created a method called optovolution that uses light to guide the evolution of proteins with dynamic behaviors. By engineering yeast cells so their survival depended on proteins ...

Physicists have recreated the Nobel Prize–winning quantum Hall effect using light, revealing that photons can follow the same ...
