Scientists engineered a nanostring that cascades energy through five vibration modes from a single push, opening new paths for ultrasensitive nanoscale sensors. (Nanowerk News) Scientists at TU Delft ...

Physicists searching for a better understanding of quantum gravity stumbled upon something unexpected: the defining signatures of string theory.

String theory began over 50 years ago as a way to understand the strong nuclear force. Since then, it’s grown to become a theory of everything, capable of explaining the nature of every particle, ...

In this example we considered the free response of a fixed-fixed string to a set of initial conditions that resulted from pulling the string at its midpoint and releasing it from rest. We found that ...
