The complex interactions of fluid and soft matter physics prove challenging to simplify into cut-and-dried formulae. But Backholm has managed to develop a technology to measure these tiny forces, ...

When you throw a ball in the air, the equations of classical physics will tell you exactly what path the ball will take as it falls, and when and where it will land. But if you were to squeeze that ...

As the award-winning physicist discussed the future of humanity, he made a startling statement that everyone heard.

Researchers at ETH Zurich (Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule Zürich), along with teams from Germany and Australia, have made some incredibly precise measurements using calcium atoms—and the results ...

Researchers adapt a novel force measurement technique to uncover the previously unidentified physics at play at the thin air-film gap between water droplets and superhydrophobic surfaces. Microscopic ...
