Usually, friction requires two surfaces rubbing against each other. But researchers have now demonstrated that friction can also arise in the quantum realm without any physical contact at all. When ...

A research team in Bochum, Germany has unexpectedly found that light can slow down movements in the nanoworld. This is due to quantum friction, a phenomenon that has been poorly understood until now.

Thanks to modern technology, drafting an email, ordering a meal or looking up that random actor’s name you can’t remember has never been easier. But some are starting to wonder whether the quicker, ...

Earlier this year, columnist and sociologist Kathryn Jezer-Morton coined the term "friction-maxxing." It was her attempt to describe the importance of doing hard things in order to reclaim our ...

Researchers have uncovered friction without contact—driven entirely by magnetic interactions. As two magnetic layers slide, their internal forces compete, causing constant rearrangements that ...

Researchers at the University of Konstanz have uncovered a new mechanism of sliding friction: resistance to motion that arises without any mechanical contact, driven purely by collective magnetic ...
