NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope "detected none of the high-energy gamma-ray light" from a nearby supernova. NASA ...

Is there some evidence suggesting that humans are the Galaxy’s only intelligent species? Enrico Fermi thought so – and he was a pretty smart guy. Could he be right? In 1950, the famous physicist made ...

The resulting tunneling current can be calculated using the time-dependent perturbation theory. If a positive V is applied to the sample, the Fermi level of the sample shifts down with respect to the ...

U.S. nuclear power plants have two Nuclear Regulatory Commission inspectors stationed right on site. Who is at Fermi 2? What ...

Discover the Fermi Paradox — why, in a vast universe full of stars and planets, haven't we found extraterrestrial life? Explore the theories behind this great mystery. The universe is vast ...

The formation of a strong coordination structure, [Zn(H2O)6]2+ often increases direct contact between the solvated H2O and Zn anodes on the inner Helmholtz layer, which exacerbates undesirable side ...
