New Technique for High-Precision Measurement of Atomic-Scale Magnetic Fields

Scientists at MIT have devised a new technique for measuring atomic-scale magnetic fields with excellent precision, not just up and down but even sideways.

Physicists Use Laser Light to Create Chiral Molecules

Chiral agents, which are contained in 7 out of 10 most common medications, are molecules occurring in right- or left-handed forms. At the time of chemical synthesis, both forms generally exist in equal parts and must be separated later, since the effect of the agent in the body is governed by its chirality.

Using Atomic Clocks to Prove Fundamental Hypothesis of the Theory of Relativity

The hypothesis formulated by Einstein in his Special Theory of Relativity proved that the speed of light is the same all the time despite the given conditions.

Quantum Simulation Offers Brief Peek into Time Reversal Possibilities

People mark days with calendars and clocks, but possibly no timepiece is more direct than a mirror. Over the years, changes are noticed which richly demonstrate science’s “arrow of time”—the probable evolution from order to disorder.

Subaru Telescope Helps Discover 13-Billion-Year-Old Quasars Powered by Black Holes

Astronomers from Princeton University, Japan, and Taiwan have discovered 83 quasars driven by supermassive black holes in the remote universe, from a period when the universe was less than 10% of its current age.

Using High-Speed Lasers to Reveal Mechanisms Behind the Creation of H3+, the Primeval Molecule

Researchers consider that the trihydrogen (H3+) molecule made the universe. In the latest issues of Nature Communications and the Journal of Chemical Physics, researchers from the Michigan State University have described the use of high-speed lasers to reveal the mechanisms that play a vital role in the creation and unusual chemistry of H3+.

Study Reveals Helicity of Plasma, Applicable to Understand the Behavior of Magnetic Clouds

Electrically charged particles constituting the fourth state of matter—the so-called plasma—are bound to magnetic field lines similar to beads on a string, whether they zip through a star or a fusion device on Earth.

Using AI to Understand the Mysteries of Quantum Physics

A research team, under the guidance of Mobileye founder Amnon Shashua, at Hebrew University of Jerusalem's School of Engineering and Computer Science has confirmed that artificial intelligence (AI) can help man comprehend the world on an infinitesimally small scale known as quantum physics phenomena.

Researchers Develop Models to Explain Why Beta Decays of Atomic Nuclei are Slower than Expected

A half-a-decade-old puzzle has been solved by an international collaboration, including researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, explaining the reason for beta decays of atomic nuclei being slower compared to what is anticipated based on the beta decays of free neutrons.
