When Richard Feynman first conceived of quantum computers in the 1980s, he believed they should primarily investigate quantum phenomena. So that’s what a group of chemists did: they used quantum ...

A soft polymer that hardens on impact uses force-activated molecules to rewire its own structure, achieving record stiffness and 97% force reduction.

Watch a surprising experiment as a heated metal ball interacts with mayonnaise. See the reaction and unexpected results in this quick, curious test.

In this quick science demo, I use a classic ball and ring apparatus to show how metals expand when heated and contract when ...

Recent studies show that nitrate and nitrite are physiologically recycled in blood and tissue to form NO and other bioactive nitrogen oxides. Thus, they should be viewed as storage pools for NO-like ...

One Step Ahead brings female high school students from the GAINS program (Girls Achieving in Non-Traditional Subjects) to campus to learn about the different engineering disciplines and participate in ...
