Researchers at the Joint Quantum Institute (JQI) have implemented an experimental test for quantum scrambling, a chaotic shuffling of the information stored…
In a special issue of the ESO Messenger, several articles give a project overview and provide astronomers with detailed information about the first Call for…
Atoms and molecules are the building blocks of matter. Spectroscopy can detect and identify a wide range of different compounds by their characteristic…
In the article, recently published in the journal Communications Physics along with physicists from the University of Nanjing (China) and the Stanford…
Electric currents drive all our electronic devices. The emerging field of spintronics looks to replace electric currents with what are known as spin currents….
The rotation of stars in galaxies such as our Milky Way is puzzling. The orbital speeds of stars should decrease with their distance from the center of the…
Rice University physicists Matthew Foster and Seth Davis want to view a vexing quantum puzzle from an entirely new perspective. They just need the right…
Noise-cancelling headphones have become a popular accessory for frequent flyers. By analyzing the background frequencies produced by an airplane in flight and…
Skyrmions are three-dimensional structures that occur in magnetic materials. They are magnetic vortices a few nanometers in size in which atomic elementary…
Using the principle of supersymmetry, they have developed the first supersymmetric laser array. Their findings were published recently in the journal Science.
In recent years, electronic data processing has been evolving in one direction only: The industry has downsized its components to the nanometer range. But this…
Combining a first laser pulse to heat up and “drill” through a plasma, and another to accelerate electrons to incredibly high energies in just tens of…
In 2010 substantial progress was made when the theory of percolation on interdependent networks was introduced by Prof. Shlomo Havlin and a team of researchers…
Taking their name from an intricate Japanese basket pattern, kagome magnets are thought to have electronic properties that could be valuable for future quantum…
This means that specified standards exist now for scientists in search of new heavy elements that their measurements and publications have to meet.
In August 2017, two neutron stars were observed colliding, producing gravitational waves that were detected by the American LIGO and European Virgo detectors….
