High-entropy alloys are promising advanced materials for demanding applications, but discovering useful compositions is difficult and expensive due to the vast number of possible element combinations.

Metals are made of randomly oriented crystals at the microscopic-length scale. The alignment of the crystal faces creates an infinite number of configurations and complex patterns, making simulations ...

Large language models (LLMs) can suggest hypotheses, write code and draft papers, and AI agents are automating parts of the research process. Although this can accelerate science, it also makes it ...

Keeping high-power particle accelerators at peak performance requires advanced and precise control systems. For example, the primary research machine at the U.S. Department of Energy's Thomas ...

Scientists may have spotted a long-lost Soviet Union Lander, over 60 years after it vanished on the surface of the moon.

Machine learning algorithms that output human-readable equations and design rules are transforming how electrocatalysts for clean-energy reactions are screened, identified, and validated across ...

By transforming movement into data, Timothy Dunn is reshaping how scientists can study behavior and the brain.

Luna 9 had a bouncy touchdown on the lunar surface in 1966, becoming the first spacecraft to land on the Moon.
