During our academic journey, there are subjects we enjoy more and others we find quite difficult. It’s no wonder that we often seek ways to better understand the tough concepts of the difficult ...

Tugging a small toy with your dog can be a lot of fun—but it’s also a great way to experiment with forces acting on an object. Forces are what scientists call the pushing and pulling on objects. In ...

Scientists have created the first real-time 3D simulations of how lasers alter the quantum vacuum. Using cutting-edge computational modeling, scientists from the University of Oxford, in collaboration ...
