Biomechanics is the sport science field that applies the laws of mechanics and physics to human performance, in order to gain a greater understanding of performance in athletic events through ...

For the first time, physicists have built a two-dimensional experimental system that allows them to study the physical properties of materials that were theorized to exist only in four-dimensional ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Let W(t) be a two dimensional Brownian motion with W(0) = (1, 0) and let φ(t) be the net number of times the path has wound around (0, 0), ...

For more than a century, physicists have suspected that the familiar three dimensions of space might be only a small slice of ...

Besides the basic well-known states of matter – solid, liquid, gas and plasma – there are many exotic states being conjured up in the lab. One of these, known as a “supersolid,” was only confirmed a ...

A 50-year-old puzzle in statistical mechanics has been solved by an international team of researchers who have proved that two-dimensional (2D) liquids have fundamentally different dynamical ...

A University of Washington-led team has discovered that, by stacking a sheet of graphene onto bulk graphite at a small twist angle (top), “exotic” properties present at the graphene-graphite interface ...

Researchers at the Institute for Molecular Science (IMS) have definitively resolved a two-decade-long controversy regarding ...
