Ultracold atoms are still too hot. This may seem a ridiculous claim—after
all, the low-temperature exploits of the purveyors of quantum gases are
notorious. Laser cooling can flash-freeze atoms to temperatures in the micro-
and nanokelvin...

For more than a decade geoscientists have detected what amount to
ultra-slow-motion earthquakes under Western Washington and British Columbia on a
regular basis, about every 14 months. Such episodic tremor-and-slip events
typically last two...

Cornell researchers have answered a fundamental question about how two
strands of DNA, known as a double helix, separate to start a process called
replication, in which genes copy themselves. The research, published in the
current issue of...
