In solid-state physics, oxide layers only a few nanometres thick are known to form a so-called two-dimensional electron gas. These thin layers, separated from…
The geometry of an object indicates its shape or the relationship of its parts to each other. Did you know that the electrons in solids also have geometric…
In the paper, 'Monitoring chemistry in situ with the Smart Stirrer –a magnetic stirrer bar with an integrated process monitoring system' published in the…
Nobody can shoot a pistol bullet through a banana in such a way that the skin is perforated but the banana remains intact. However, on the level of individual…
To reach this conclusion, lead author Anna Grau Galofre, former PhD student in the department of earth, ocean and atmospheric sciences, developed and used new…
Using the supersharp radio “vision” of the continent-wide Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA), astronomers have discovered a Saturn-sized planet closely orbiting a…
As the researchers have now discovered, pallasites arose from asteroid collisions that occurred approximately 4.5 billion years ago. In these collisions, iron…
The first photograph of a single trapped atom represented a milestone for quantum research. This breakthrough was made possible because the atom was captured…
Our solar system has one habitable planet — Earth. A new study shows other stars could have as many as seven Earth-like planets in the absence of a gas giant…
While Einstein's theory of general relativity can explain a large array of fascinating astrophysical and cosmological phenomena, some aspects of the properties…
Modern applications as high resolution microsopy or micro- or nanoscale material processing require customized laser beams that do not change during…
The researchers, from the University of Cambridge, Harvard and MIT, have shown that quantum particles can carry an unlimited amount of information about things…
Many compact systems using mid-infrared technology continue to face compatibility issues when integrating with conventional electronics.
The RAdial Velocity Experiment RAVE is a spectroscopic survey of stars in the southern hemisphere. RAVE was designed to get a representative census of the…
Born through shocks and cosmic rays: The origin of Aluminium-26 in protostellar disks The radioactive isotope Aluminium-26 found in planets and asteroids was…
Although no life has been detected on the Martian surface, a new study from astrophysicist and research scientist at the Center for Space Science at NYU Abu…
