For a technical scientific term, entropy is pretty popular. I mean, it was the title of an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, after all. Search the Internet for “entropy” quotes and you’ll find them ...

Utilizing waste cotton fabric as a dual-functional flexible substrate and carbon source, this work enabled vapor-liquid-solid ...

Entropy, the amount of molecular disorder, is produced in several systems but cannot be measured directly. A new equation sheds new light on how entropy is produced on a very short time scale in laser ...

The "Discoverative" Ecosystem: Leveraging his decades of experience and research insights, Mr. Chen is now building a closed-loop ecosystem based on his philosophy of "Discoverative Intelligence" ...

Physicists have spent a century trying to reconcile the smooth fabric of spacetime in general relativity with the jittery ...

In 1961 Rolf Landauer linked information and thermodynamic entropy by showing that erasing or combining bits of memory must be accompanied by an increase in entropy. For the first time since then, a ...

From a laptop warming a knee to a supercomputer heating a room, the fact that computers generate heat is familiar to everyone. But theoretical physicists have discovered something astonishing: not ...

In my last report from Physics@FOM, I will talk about something I am truly not competent to discuss: "Holography, ADS/CFT and the emergence of gravity." I realize that I am not always the sharpest ...
