Vacuum fluctuations may be among the most counter-intuitive phenomena of quantum physics. Theorists have now proposed a way to amplify their force. The researchers believe that their proposed ...

CNC router tables have a flat, machined surface with grooves or channels over the whole area and rubber seals. Metallurgical advancement in router bits have allowed for higher speed machining, ...

(Nanowerk News) The force is strong not only in Star Wars lore but also as a fundamental property in physics. For example, scientists can put two uncharged metal plates close together in a vacuum, and ...

Quantum vacuum forces dictate the interaction between individual atoms and dielectric surfaces at nanoscale distances. For example, their large strengths typically overwhelm externally applied forces, ...
