A new approach to producing metamaterials draws on kirigami techniques to make three-dimensional, reconfigurable building blocks that can be used to create complex, dynamic structures. Because the ...

A new set of molecular building blocks aims to make complex chemistry as simple and accessible as a toy construction kit. Researchers have developed a new class of chemical building blocks that simply ...

Nuclear theorists in the HadStruc Collaboration have been working on a mathematical description of the interactions of partons using supercomputers, including machines in Jefferson Lab's Data Center.

The hollow cell structure of this 1.5 tonne block, 3D printed from simulated lunar dust, let it combine strength with low weight, like bird bones. The building block is on show in the laboratory ...
