A series of quantum physics experiments and theoretical papers now suggest that heat can flow spontaneously from a cold object to a hot one, provided the right quantum conditions are in place. This ...

When temperatures soar, so do heart attacks. Now, a lab experiment explains just how temperatures climbing into Fahrenheit’s three-digits can cause ischemia and potential heart attacks, all while ...

A Purdue University experiment was sent to the International Space Station on Tuesday to collect data toward understanding how reduced gravity affects condensation. The experiment launched on Northrop ...

Synthetic quartz may help reduce the carbon footprint of industries that produce things like glass, steel, and cement. In recent experiments, Federal University of Technology, Zurich, engineer ...

The US Air Force (USAF) hosted a heat pipe experiment on its most recent Boeing X-37B Orbital Test Vehicle (OTV) mission, which could help the service learn how to better manage heat with spacecraft.
