When a high-intensity laser interacts with plasma, the charged particles typically oscillate back and forth like waves on the ...

Researchers have a new explanation for why those endless days of childhood seemed to last so much longer than they do now -- physics. According to the theory, the apparent temporal discrepancy can be ...

This review summarizes efforts to develop coarse-grained multichain models for entangled polymers. The studies aim to bridge an important gap between the standard bead-spring model and the tube model.

The microscopic origin of line tension, used in the equilibrium description of liquid drops on flat surfaces, is not well understood. Simulations of water nanodroplets show that structural transitions ...
