3D reconstruction of the electromagnetic field surrounding a magnesium oxide nanocube. The three modes (I, II, III) represent the nanocube’s different energy ...

For the first time, scientists have directly measured “ultraweak” photon emissions from living organisms. In rats this glow fades rapidly after death. In plants it brightens under stress. In the ...

Lighten up, people: a fascinating new paper has dropped that describes the shape of a single photon, the smallest possible form of energy in an electromagnetic field that we commonly know as light.

Nearly 20 years ago, researchers at Oregon State University began leading an effort to collect information about the structure and evolution of the North American continent using electromagnetic ...

Astronomers have detected the highest-energy light ever seen, streaming in from near the center of the Milky Way. Hundreds of gamma ray signals were detected with ultra-high energies, with the most ...

A recent Physical Review Letters publication presents a thorough analysis of MicroBooNE detector data, investigating the anomalous surplus of neutrino-like events detected by the preceding MiniBooNE ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. The Universe is out there, waiting for you to discover it. Imagine the ultimate version of a toy Universe: it's expanding, it's ...
