NASA’s NICER Telescope Observes Merging of X-Ray Spots on a Magnetar Surface

Neutron star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) of NASA has for the first time witnessed the integration of multimillion-degree X-Ray spots on the surface of a magnetar — a supermagnetized stellar core that is no larger than a city.

A Step Closer to Discovering Dark Matter Using New Quantum Technology

A new study managed by scientists from Tel Aviv University shows extraordinary sensitivity to a stimulating dark matter candidate.

Scientists Establish Compatibility Between Irreversibility and Quantum Mechanics Time-Reversal Symmetric Laws

A group of INRiM scientists, in collaboration with Oxford University, establishes the compatibility between quantum mechanics’ time-reversal symmetric laws and irreversibility. The study was published in the American Physical Society’s Physical Review Letters.

Novel Method for Emulating Nonlinear Quantum Electrodynamics in the Laboratory

On the big screen, in video games and in our imaginations, lightsabers flare and catch when they clash together. In reality, as in a laser light show, the beams of light go through each other, creating spiderweb patterns.

Merging of Galaxies Cause AGN-Heated Dust to Dominate Cool, Far-Infrared Emission in the Galaxy

Over three decades ago, the Infrared Astronomy Satellite detected that the universe comprised many nearly invisible yet extremely luminous galaxies—some of them over a thousand times brighter than the Milky Way.

Physicists Reveal Mechanism for Stimulating the Production of Entanglement in the Hawking Effect

LSU physicists have leveraged quantum information theory techniques to reveal a mechanism for amplifying, or "stimulating," the production of entanglement in the Hawking effect in a controlled manner. Furthermore, these scientists propose a protocol for testing this idea in the laboratory using artificially produced event horizons.

Breakdown of Topological Protection by Vacuum Fluctuations in the Integer Quantum Hall Effect

"Up to 1980 nobody expected that there exists an effect like the Quantized Hall Effect, which depends exclusively on fundamental constants and is not affected by irregularities in the semiconductor like impurities or interface effects." So spoke the German physicist Klaus von Klitzing on receiving the 1985 Nobel Prize in Physics. He was recognised for his discovery, in 1980, of a quantised version of the Hall effect in two-dimensional electron gases.

Analysis of Cosmic Dust Brings Scientists One Step Closer to Quantum and Magnonic Devices

New research published in Science brings us a step closer to magnonic devices and quantum computing. Neutron analysis has revealed the behaviour of magnetic waves in a class of materials, enabling scientists to picture a future where electronic currents no longer cause our devices to heat up.

Study Demonstrates the Potential of Plasma as Energy Booster for High-Gradient Accelerators

An international team of scientists guided by Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY) researchers has shown, for the first time at the FLASHForward experiment that in principle, it is possible to work plasma accelerators at the repetition rates preferred by particle physicists and photon experts.

Oscillation Mechanism of Self-Sustained Divertor Observed in Fusion Plasma Experiment

To control the forces that power the Sun to generate significant clean energy on Earth, scientists heat fuel to an extremely high temperature causing atoms to melt into electrons and nuclei to produce a hot, gaseous soup referred to as plasma.
