New Evidence of High-Energy Photons from Galaxy's Largest Accelerator

For years, in the vastness of our galaxy, astrophysicists have been tracking down pevatrons - natural accelerators of particles with monstrous energies.

New Quantum Sensor Grants Access to Measurement, Manipulation of Two-Level Defects in Qubits

A Russian-German research team has created a quantum sensor that grants access to measurement and manipulation of individual two-level defects in qubits. The study by NUST MISIS, Russian Quantum Center and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, published in npj Quantum Information, may pave the way for quantum computing.

Astronomers Correctly Guess Parameters Used to Generate Mock Catalog of Galaxies

Two groups of American astronomers have played a guess-the-numbers game with cosmological implications.

Researchers Map the Location of Missing Baryons in the Galactic Halos

Researchers have channeled the universe's earliest light - a relic of the universe's formation known as the cosmic microwave background (CMB) - to solve a missing-matter mystery and learn new things about galaxy formation.

Observations of the Early Universe Point to the Existence of Unsuspected Dwarf Galaxies

Although the filaments of gas in which galaxies are born have long been predicted by cosmological models, we have so far had no real images of such objects. Now for the first time, several filaments of the 'cosmic web' have been directly observed using the MUSE (1) instrument installed on ESO's Very Large Telescope in Chile.

Using Synchrotron Radiation to Track Ultrafast Intra-Atom Motion

Scientists in Japan have observed, and interfered with, the ultrafast motion of electron movement inside of a Xenon atom using the coherent pairs of short light waves in synchrotron radiation.

Study Reveals a Spectacular Auroral Phenomenon that Occurs on Jupiter

The storms, which consist of brightenings and broadenings of the dawn flank of an oval of auroral activity that encircles Jupiter's poles, evolve in a pattern surprisingly reminiscent of familiar surges in the aurora that undulate across Earth's polar skies, called auroral substorms, according to the authors.

Researchers Unveil Matter that Fuels Galaxy Formation Using Light from the Big Bang

Using light from the Big Bang, an international team led by Cornell University and the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has begun to unveil the material which fuels galaxy formation.

Astronomers Detect Distant Galaxy that Could be the Faintest Radio-Emitting Object

Radio telescopes—the most sensitive radio receivers in the world—can detect even extremely feeble wisps of radio emission from objects at the farthest boundaries of the universe.

University of Maine Researcher Wins NSF CAREER Award to Study Thermal Emission in Quantum Materials

Components the size of a few atoms, known as quantum materials, can enhance how technology functions and manages its heat. However, little is known about how heat is emitted and exchanged in quantum materials in contrast with their more common counterparts, three-dimensional bulk materials.
