A Step Towards Understanding Accretion Processes Around Black Holes

Supermassive black holes present in the universe tend to swallow gas around them. The infalling gas is known as black hole accretion flow.

Scientists Set the Most Stringent Laboratory Constraint on Exotic Spin Interaction

Prof. DU Jiangfeng, Prof. RONG Xing, and their colleagues from the Key Laboratory of Micromagnetic Resonance, University of Science and Technology of China of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, set the most stringent laboratory constraint on the exotic spin- and velocity-dependent interaction at the micrometer scale. This study was published in Physical Review Letters.

A New Alternative Mechanism to Achieve Superconductivity in Graphene

Superconductivity is a physical phenomenon where the electrical resistance of a material drops to zero under a certain critical temperature. Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer theory is a well-established explanation that describes superconductivity in most materials.

Researchers Find Evidence for an Anomalous Phase of Matter

Researchers have found evidence for an anomalous phase of matter that was predicted to exist in the 1960s. Harnessing its properties could pave the way to new technologies able to share information without energy losses. T

Physicist Turns to Artificial Intelligence for Finding New Materials with Exotic Properties

In the periodic table of elements, there are 118 distinct elements, most of which can combine with one or more others to form materials with potentially surprising properties.

Employing a Quantum Physics Phenomenon to Trigger Cancer Cell Death

Cancer cell death is triggered within three days when X-rays are shone onto tumor tissue containing iodine-carrying nanoparticles. The iodine releases electrons that break the tumor's DNA, leading to cell death.

Study Demonstrates Absorption of Laser Light Energy by Free Electrons in a Liquid

For the first ever time, researchers have demonstrated the absorption of energy from laser light by free electrons in a liquid. So far, this process was noted only in the gas phase.

Study Shows High-Tc Superconductor Fe(Se,Te) Monolayer as a Promising Majorana Platform

In particle physics, a Majorana Fermion is charge neutral and its antiparticle is just itself. In condensed matter physics, a Majorana zero mode (MZM) is a quasi-particle excitation, which appears in the surfaces or edges of topological superconductors.

Where are the World’s Women in Physics?

“On the first day of the 7th IUPAP Conference on Women in Physics we heard about the scale of the challenge to redress gender inequity in physics. As the conference progresses we hope to learn more about how we can work together to improve the situation for women in physics,” said Professor Sarah Maddison, conference co-chair.

Study Offers New Insight into the Reflection of the Universe Near Black Holes

Near black holes, space tends to be so deformed that even light rays might curve around them mostly. This phenomenon might allow people to view several versions of the same thing.
