Novel Approach Could Make It Possible to Detect the Quantum Unruh Effect in Hours

For "Star Wars" fans, the streaking stars seen from the cockpit of the Millennium Falcon as it jumps to hyperspace is a canonical image. But what would a pilot actually see if she could accelerate in an instant through the vacuum of space- According to a prediction known as the Unruh effect, she would more likely see a warm glow.

Unraveling Sublattice Properties of 3D-Orbital Van Hove Singularities in Kagome Superconductor CsV3Sb5

So-called kagome metals, named after the Japanese woven bamboo pattern their structure resembles, feature symmetrical patterns of interlaced, corner-sharing triangles. This unusual lattice geometry and its inherent features lead, in turn, to curious quantum phenomena such as unconventional, or high-temperature, superconductivity.
