Scientists around the world are analyzing Mars for any signs of past life, and now a new study has provided evidence that suggests Mars once had the right conditions for life to form. So, why is this ...

A collaborative group of researchers has potentially developed a means of controlling spin waves by creating a hexagonal pattern of copper disks on a magnetic insulator. The breakthrough is expected ...

The perfect hexagonal shape of honeycomb cells — once thought to be an incredible feat of math-savvy insects — has now been explained by simple mechanics. Subscribe to read this story ad-free Get ...

To generate the needed nanometre-scale pattern, we strive to avoid a serial process such as electron beam lithography. Instead, we take advantage of the same interfacial orientation effects that ...
