A graphic illustrating the four possible interactions between two particles, where the arrows indicate the force experienced by the particle of that color due to the gradient surrounding the particle ...

The researcher, whose contribution to science was described as ‘close to Einstein’, specialised in the study of subatomic ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has established itself as a decisive tool for probing nanoscale interactions, particularly adhesion forces and capillary phenomena. A precise understanding of these ...

Force spectroscopy relies on the precise measurement of forces acting on a probe as it interacts with a sample. The key principles of force spectroscopy include: AFM-based force spectroscopy is the ...

Warm Jupiters are rewriting the rules of planet formation - showing eccentric orbits that stay strangely aligned with their ...

Researchers have discovered that molecules experience non-reciprocal interactions without external forces. Fundamental forces such as gravity and electromagnetism are reciprocal, where two objects are ...
