More than a century after Srinivasa Ramanujan scribbled his astonishing formulas for π in notebooks in India and England, physicists are finding that those same equations describe how nature behaves ...

Abstract: A physics-based compact model for retention behaviors of conductive-bridge random access memory (CBRAM) is developed by modeling: 1) the material-dependent metal atom transport from the ...

On October 8, 2024, the field of physics was plunged into controversy. That day, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded for discoveries not involving black holes, cosmology, or strange new subatomic ...

It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is described extremely well by quantum theory, while the world of gravitation ...

STOCKHOLM, Sweden ‒ U.S.-based scientists John Clarke, Michel Devoret and John Martinis shared the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics for "experiments that revealed quantum physics in action," paving the way ...

Three U.S.-based scientists were awarded the Nobel Prize in physics Tuesday for their discoveries in quantum mechanics. The award was given to John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis for ...

UC Santa Barbara physicists John Martinis and Michel Devoret have been awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics. Selected for the honor alongside UC Berkeley physicist and former advisor John Clarke, ...

Turbulence is everywhere, yet much about the nature of turbulence remains unknown. During the last decade, physicists have discovered how fluids in a pipe or similar geometry transition from a smooth, ...

The internet is full of people claiming to uncover conspiracies in politics and business. During the pandemic, public health experts and pharmaceutical companies became popular targets. Now an ...
