Researchers have observed the shock melting and refreezing of a metal (zirconium) at the picosecond scale.
Describes a method to determine local deuterium–tritium (DT) fuel density in an inertial confinement fusion implosion using neutron imaging of the core.
Tropical glaciers in Africa and South America began their retreat simultaneously at the end of the last ice age about 20,000 years ago.
The spoken word, music, earthquakes, vibrating equipment: the physics of mechanical waves, including sound, govern what we hear, their use in technology, and their effect during such events as earthquakes.
Scientists have tracked down a potential target for new drugs against sleeping sickness.
Understanding waves is fundamental—through them we see, communicate, transmit energy, probe the universe. Experimenting with harmonic oscillators, such as a mass on a spring, is a great way to understand how waves work.
The pressure of fluids like air and water regulate many natural processes from those in living organisms to the weather.
A chemist who is the director of Livermore’s Forensic Science Center is the recipient of the 2020 “Outstanding Early Career Achievement in Forensic Science Award.”
Scientist have developed a benchmark of nitrogen and phosphorus limitation for models to be used for predictions of the terrestrial carbon sink.
