By twisting layers of graphene, researchers discovered a unique electronic crystal where electrons freeze in place yet allow ...

Electrons have a hidden feature — spin — that could revolutionize technology. Magnets can control it, but researchers are now ...

A zero calcium score with high cholesterol may mean a person is at a lower risk of coronary heart disease. It means imaging does not show a buildup of calcified plaque in the heart’s blood vessels.

There’s the pure mystery of how it happens: The phenomenon requires electrons, which carry electrical current, to pair up. Electrons repel each other, so how can they be united? Then there’s ...

Fusion energy has long been hailed as the “holy grail” of clean energy. However, the problem of runaway electrons has been a major hurdle in realizing the nuclear fusion process. The latest ...

Valence electrons with quantum properties are also expected to exhibit emergent phenomena, making these crystals essential for studying novel material functionalities. However, the extent to which ...

A new study has found that consuming foods and drinks rich in calcium is correlated with a lowered risk for colorectal cancer. Researchers also further solidified the known risk of alcohol and red ...

Consuming the amount of calcium found in a glass of milk could reduce the risk of colorectal cancer, according to a new study involving women. That was regardless of whether the calcium came from ...

A new breakthrough may help scientists solve some of the mysteries of the quantum realm. For the first time, physicists have been able to measure the geometrical 'shape' a lone electron adopts as it ...
