Despite being riddled with impurities and defects, solution-processed lead-halide perovskites are surprisingly efficient at ...

Light can hit a lead halide perovskite crystal that is anything but pristine and still end up as useful electric current. That mismatch has bothered solar researchers for more than a decade. Silicon ...

Scientists say an ultra-powerful neutrino once thought impossible may be explained by an exotic black hole model involving a so-called “dark charge.” ...

Why did this particle mysteriously disintegrate?

Scientists imagine virtual particles popping in and out of existence to explain how forces transfer between particles. koto_feja/iStock via Getty Images A clever mathematical tool known as virtual ...

In 2023, a subatomic particle called a neutrino crashed into Earth with such a high amount of energy that it should have been impossible. In fact, there are no known sources anywhere in the universe ...

Two independent lines of evidence from the world’s most powerful particle experiments are converging on the same ...

For various, typically historical reasons, even the best physicists claim things that sound egregious to modern observers. That doesn’t necessarily mean these ideas are completely useless—if anything, ...

Work on nuclear physics in the early twentieth century moved across borders, institutes and private letters. Lise Meitner was part of that movement fo.
