Beneath Yellowstone’s stunning surface lies a hyperactive seismic world, now better understood thanks to machine learning.
Yellowstone, a popular tourist destination and namesake of an equally popular TV show, was the first-ever national park in the United States. And bubbling beneath it—to this day—is one of Earth's most ...
A team of scientists from Princeton University has measured the energies of electrons in a new class of quantum materials and has found them to follow a fractal pattern known as “Hofstadter’s ...
Researchers observed a long-predicted fractal energy pattern in twisted carbon materials, confirming quantum theories.
A quantum version of a fractal pattern, known as "Hofstadter's butterfly," which has long been predicted, but the new study marks the first time it has been directly observed experimentally in a ...
Fractals are self-repeating patterns that occur on different length scales and can be seen in nature in a variety of settings, including snowflakes, ferns, and coastlines.
A fractal butterfly pattern produced by an unusual configuration of magnetic fields, first predicted almost 50 years ago, has been seen in detail for the first time in a twisted piece of graphene.
Ten cool science stories we almost missed Bronze Age combat, moral philosophy and Reddit's AITA, Mondrian's fractal tree, and seven other fascinating papers.
