NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope Observes Seven Earth-Size Planets

The first known system of seven Earth-size planets orbiting around a single star has been revealed by NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope. It has been observed that three of these planets are firmly positioned in the habitable zone, referring to the area surrounding the parent star where a rocky planet is expected to have liquid water.

Researchers Examine Ultrafast Laser-Excited Magnetization Dynamics of LSMO Thin Films with BFO Coating Layers

Ultrafast non-equilibrium magnetization in correlated spin systems is extensively studied in recent years. At both fundamental and application levels, ultrafast laser pulse excitation and dynamics measurement provide an effective path to the fast optical detection, as well as for the control of the magnetic order.
