As current courses through a battery, its materials erode over time. Mechanical influences such as stress and strain affect this trajectory, although their impacts on battery efficacy and longevity are not fully understood.
Quantum computers process information using quantum bits, or qubits, based on fragile, short-lived quantum mechanical states.
Few things carry the same aura of mystery as dark matter. The name itself radiates secrecy, suggesting something hidden in the shadows of the Universe.
For nearly six years, the Majorana Demonstrator quietly listened to the universe.
