Researchers have made a breakthrough in applying the first law of thermodynamics to complex systems, rewriting the way we ...

A new study has uncovered the universal dynamics far from equilibrium in randomly interacting spin models, thereby complementing the well-established universality in low-energy equilibrium physics.

Light and matter can remain at separate temperatures even while interacting with each other for long periods, according to new research that could help scale up an emerging quantum computing approach ...

The ice in a domestic freezer is remarkably different from the single crystals that form in snow clouds, or even those formed ...

For years, researchers have provided contradictory evidence about the “premelting film” of ice, its thickness and whether it ...

Quantum dynamics—the study of how particles behave and interact in a quantum system—has long fascinated physicists due to its puzzling and sometimes bizarre behaviors. Unlike classical systems, where ...

The goal of this project is to construct a statistical morphing continuum theory to model the complex and non-equilibrium physics of microstructured eddies in compressible turbulence. This multiscale ...
