Cherenkov radiation is a phenomenon that occurs when charged particles, such as electrons, travel through a dielectric medium at a speed greater than the speed of light in that medium. This effect ...

thanks to Cherenkov radiation. The speed of light in a vacuum is the absolute speed limit of the universe. Nothing will go faster than 300,000 kilometers per second (186,000 miles per second ...

Cherenkov Radiation: Electromagnetic radiation emitted when a charged particle moves through a dielectric medium at a speed greater than the speed of light in that medium. This Nature Research ...

Scientists from the (MPSD) and MIT have achieved a groundbreaking feat — creating a stable, long-lasting magnetic state in an antiferromagnetic material using only light. This discovery could lead to ...

It implies that we cannot transfer information to astronauts visiting the nearest star, Proxima Centauri, in less than 4.25 years. Despite wishful thinking, quantum entanglement cannot transfer ...

ballooning our universe outwards faster than the speed of light. This was a period of cosmic inflation that lasted mere fractions of a second — about 10^-32 of a second, according to physicist ...

The record-breaking winds are circling the nearby "puffy" exoplanet WASP-127b, and are traveling six times faster than the ...

The Vera C. Rubin Observatory is set to revolutionize our understanding of the cosmos by detecting millions of exploding stars — Type Ia supernovae — over the next decade. These brilliant explosions ...

A team of physicists affiliated with multiple institutions in China has measured a pulse of light in 37 dimensions. In their ...

According to scientists at the University of Reading, the global mean sea surface temperature (GMSST) is rising 400 percent faster than it was in the late 1980s. The scientists also estimate that ...

When scientists measure this expansion rate (known as the Hubble constant) using nearby objects, they consistently get a higher value than when they measure it using light from the early universe.
