Electrons can be "kicked across" solar materials at almost the fastest speed nature allows, scientists have discovered, ...

Researchers at the University of Cambridge have discovered that molecular vibrations can act like a catapult, flinging electrons across solar cell materials in roughly 18 femtoseconds, a timescale so ...

Scientists at the University of Cambridge have revealed a new mechanism that allows electrons to move across solar materials at new speeds ...

Electrons in solar materials can be launched across molecules almost as fast as nature allows, thanks to tiny atomic vibrations acting like a “molecular catapult.” In experiments lasting just 18 ...

More than 1,000 high school students and teachers from across B.C. will participate in the 48th annual UBC Physics Olympics this weekend.

The EMALS is an electromagnetic catapult that relies upon a linear induction motor, rather than a traditional steam piston, to launch aircraft. The linear induction motor, as the name implies, uses ...
