Artificial intelligence is helping scientists discover new medicines, create advanced materials, and now even design better ...

Perfect randomness sounds simple, until you try to make it. A die can be polished, balanced and rolled thousands of times.

Physicists used quantum bits to achieve perfect randomness for the first time ever. The results of their research could ...

Inspired by biological systems, materials scientists have long sought to harness self-assembly to build nanomaterials. The challenge: the process seemed random and notoriously difficult to predict.

How did the first ancient fish leave the water and learn to walk on land millions of years ago? Scientists think they have ...

Pioneering scientists have created a miniature nuclear fireball and uncovered a surprise discovery in the realm of chemical ...

A strange form of matter called a time crystal has fascinated physicists for about a decade. These systems move in repeating cycles, even without a steady external push. Now, researchers at New York ...

EurekAlert!—In a new study, physicists at the University of Colorado Boulder have used liquid crystals, the same materials that are in your phone display, to create such a clock—or, at least, as close ...
