Researchers at New York University have devised a mathematical approach to predict the structures of crystals—a critical step in developing many medicines and electronic devices—in a matter of hours ...

Developing and manufacturing effective, safe, reliable new drugs or critical new materials for use in semiconductors or applications involving dangerous materials requires many layers of knowledge.

Researchers have precisely measured the electrical-transport properties of a highly ordered Wigner solid—a crystalline state formed of electrons rather than atoms. When subjected to a strong magnetic ...

Might two bent crystals pave the way to finding new physics? The Standard Model of particle physics describes our world at its smallest scales exceptionally well. However, it leaves some important ...
