Using sheets of light to corral waves of ultracold atoms, researchers have created an experimental platform for studying the ...

Researchers have used radio observations of rapidly spinning neutron stars to search for signals from supermassive black hole pairs at the dawn of galaxy formation.

The Rubin Observatory has spotted a distant object that could join Pluto in the Solar System’s exclusive family of dwarf ...

The state of a superconducting qubit after a logical operation is determined by a device called a readout resonator. Unfortunately, resonators typically struggle to consistently read their qubits ...

Topological superconductors hold promise for fault-tolerant quantum computing, but isolating signatures of the desired topological states has proven an elusive goal. A new study of an iron-based ...

In a nonlinear Hall effect (NLHE), an electric field applied in the plane of a material induces a transverse voltage that depends nonlinearly on the field. This voltage can scale with either an odd or ...

Researchers have proposed that structural disorder can be harnessed to generate coherent, directional light from the passage of a charged particle. When a charged particle such as a relativistic ...

A device that stores a single positron and controls its quantum states could measure its magnetic moment with unprecedented precision, testing a symmetry principle central to quantum field theory.

Lab experiments provide new details about the charge-transfer process that occurs in ash clouds and other collections of particles. Electric volcano. Triboelectric charging caused by collisions of ash ...

Experiments show that bundling of individual strands of an important protein polymer can occur through capillary forces, not just through molecular binding. Separated at birth. The chromosomes (blue) ...
