New Spin Wave Type Could Enable Long-Distance, Multiplex Twist-Based Signal Encoding and Transmission

The ever-growing demand for energy and the fundamental limits on miniaturization have hindered further progresses in IT technologies. Another challenge is energy dissipation, which mostly goes into warming up the environment.

Researchers Develop Flexible Electric-Double-Layer Transistor to Control Superconductivity in Strongly Correlated Materials

Cuprate high-temperature superconductors are examples of strongly correlated materials, in which superconductivity can be regulated either by altering the kinetic energy, or transfer energy, of electrons or by altering the number of electrons in the system.

International Collaboration Achieves Strong Interactions in Isolated Quantum Liquids of Excitons

For the first time, direction-dependent and strong interactions in quantum liquids of excitons have been realized by an international collaboration including European, Israeli, and US researchers. These interactions are in contrast with the spatial isotropy of the link between charged particles.

Explosions of Universe’s First Stars Spewed Powerful Jets

Several hundred million years after the Big Bang, the very first stars flared into the universe as massively bright accumulations of hydrogen and helium gas. Within the cores of these first stars, extreme, thermonuclear reactions forged the first heavier elements, including carbon, iron, and zinc.

New Study Improves Insights into the Formation of Large Super-Earth Planets with Small Orbits

Planetary systems considerably different from our solar system are distributed throughout the galaxy. The planet closest to the Sun in the solar system—Mercury, with an orbit of 88 days—is also the smallest.

Researchers Report Important Breakthrough in Understanding the Behavior of Magnetic Skyrmions

Magnetic skyrmions are minute entities found in magnetic materials. These entities include localized twists in the direction of magnetization of the medium.

Discrete Energy Levels Without Confinement – A New Quantum Trick

Nanostructures can be designed such a way that the quantum confinement allows only certain electron energy levels. Researchers from IMDEA Nanociencia, UAM and ICMM-CSIC have for the first time observed a discrete pattern of electron energies in an unconfined system, which could lead to new ways of modifying the surface properties of materials.

Study Demonstrates Wave-Particle Duality of Antimatter

As part of an interference experiment, an international research team, including researchers from the University of Bern, has shown for the first time that antimatter particles not just have the properties of particles but also behave as waves.

Experiment to Understand the Relation Between Shock Wave Evolution and Expansion of Wire Exploding Underwater

For a normal person, who is not a plasma physicist, exploding electrical wires underwater might seem to be a bad idea. However, as a matter of fact, it is a technique to analyze shock waves, the disturbances that propagate faster than the speed of sound.
