Conduction is the direct flow of heat from your warm body into your colder surroundings. In winter, all that heat escaping ...

An experiment with ultracold atoms reveals that a strongly driven quantum system doesn’t always heat up as expected. In daily life, doing work on something over and over usually makes it warmer. You ...

For more than a century, gravity has been the stubborn outlier in physics, resisting every attempt to merge Einstein’s smooth ...

The most recent such harvesting arrangement I saw is another scheme to exploit the thermal differential between the cold ...

Radiative cooling technologies scatter heat and light into space, which could cut air-conditioning demand and keep people ...

Type One Energy, a University of Wisconsin-Madison nuclear fusion spinoff company, is partnering with the Tennessee Valley ...

These low-tech systems offer cheap, long-duration storage with minimal degradation, using abundant materials and basic ...

In collisions at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider, hotter than the Sun’s core by a staggering margin, scientists have finally ...

Classical Mechanics:** Newton’s second law (F = ma) explains the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration. The law ...

Abstract: Synergies among multiple energy sectors in an integrated electricity and heat system (IEHS) improve energy efficiency, economic operation and renewable energy utilization, thus contributing ...

Every task we perform on a computer—whether number crunching, watching a video, or typing out an article—requires different ...
