Physics is the study of the underlying laws and mechanisms explaining how the universe works. Most of what we do in daily life is based on a principle or law of physics—dealing with forces, motion, ...

Scientists working in applied physics are aiming to have the results of their research be used toward developing new materials or technologies. It is often considered to be a bridge between "pure" ...

Although physics is fundamentally a field of natural science, the methods and tools of physics can be applied in a variety of ways, leading to the development of fields such as Although the ...

Applied geophysics is the study of how the Earth works and what it's made of. Scientists called geophysicists use this knowledge to explore what's under the ground, check for dangers like earthquakes, ...

Their results pave the way for developing advanced electronic devices that rely on nonmagnetic materials. For the first time, researchers in Japan have detected a giant anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in ...
