Structure of Scientific Socialism

In 1848, the world was viewed through the lens of steam engines and clockwork. When Marx and Engels formulated their critique of capital, they did so within a “Newtonian” universe ~ a world of solid, ...
Scientists at the University of Southern California developed a memristor chip that operates at 700°C, offering potential for use on Venus and other high-temperature environments.
For decades scientists have thought, based on experimental observations, that the lower a glassy material’s melting rate, the ...
Published in Science, the team demonstrated the first atomic‑resolution imaging of atomic behaviour at solid–liquid interfaces in a broad range of ...
Compleximers”—materials that can be molded like window glass but that resist impacts like plastic does—shouldn’t exist, ...
Researchers have revisited a long-known material and uncovered a way to dramatically enhance its performance by altering its structure at the nanoscale.
While probing single molecules or atoms typically requires liquid helium—a costly resource—to build a stable environment, a new development from a joint Chinese research team changes the game. By ...
