Teaching machine learning the basics of accelerator physics is particularly useful in situations where actual data don’t exist.

She toured the lab’s powerful X-ray laser, looked at the construction of the world’s largest digital camera, and discussed climate research, industries of the future, and diversity, equity and inclusion in the sciences.

Nickelate materials give scientists an exciting new window into how unconventional superconductors carry electric current with no loss at relatively high temperatures.

Petroglyphs are carved in a material called rock varnish, the origins of which have been debated for years. Now, scientists argue it’s the result of bacteria and an adaptation that protects them from the desert sun’s harsh rays.

Measuring the process in unprecedented detail gives them clues to how to minimize the problem and protect battery performance.

The Horizon Prizes celebrate the most exciting, contemporary chemical science at the cutting edge of research and innovation.

From the invisible world of elementary particles to the mysteries of the cosmos, recipients of this prestigious award for early career scientists explore nature at every level.

Edward Hohenstein, Emma McBride and Caterina Vernieri study what happens to molecules hit by light, recreate extreme states of matter like those inside stars and planets, and search for new physics phenomena at the most fundamental level.

With a new suite of tools, scientists discovered exactly how tiny plate-like catalyst particles carry out a key step in that conversion – the evolution of oxygen in an electrocatalytic cell – in unprecedented detail.

Known as “pair-density waves,” it may be key to understanding how superconductivity can exist at relatively high temperatures.

Exploring and manipulating the behavior of polar vortices in materials may lead to new technology for faster data transfer and storage.
