The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a system crucial for the study of particle physics, now has an additional mission. The world ...
A series of quantum physics experiments and theoretical papers now suggest that heat can flow spontaneously from a cold object to a hot one, provided the right quantum conditions are in place. This ...
We are used to heat flowing from hot objects to cool ones, and never the other way round, but now researchers have found it is possible to pull off this trick in the strange realm of quantum mechanics ...
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory have set a new fusion record on the WEST tokamak, sustaining plasma at roughly 50 million degrees Celsius for six ...
