Twisted Magnets improve the adaptability of Brain-inspired Computing The researchers used chiral (twisted) magnets as their computational medium and discovered that the physical properties of these materials could be adapted to suit different…
Electrons are trapped in a 3D Crystal by Physicists Because quantum systems are inherently susceptible to errors due to factors such as decoherence and noise, quantum error correction (QEC) is a critical aspect of…
Detecting Quantum Flickering in the Vacuum Quantum fluctuations of the vacuum are a well-established concept in quantum field theory, and they play an important role in our understanding of particle physics.…
Spectrophotometry – a branch of electromagnetic spectroscopy Spectrophotometry is a subfield of electromagnetic spectroscopy that deals with the quantitative measurement of a material’s reflection or transmission properties as a function of wavelength.…
A Three-pronged approach identifies the Properties of Quantum Spin Liquids Quantum spin liquids are unusual states of matter that can exist in quantum magnetic systems. Even at very low temperatures, the magnetic moments of electrons,…
New Computer Code for Three-dimensional Mechanics of Tissues and Cells Individual components of biological materials include tiny motors that convert fuel into motion. This produces movement patterns, and the material shapes itself with coherent flows…
Without the Use of a Laser, a Vacuum in the Optical Cavity Can Modify the Magnetic State of a Material German and American researchers have created the first theoretical demonstration that the magnetic state of an atomically thin material, a-RuCl3, may be altered only by…
The Way Quantum Light ‘sees’ Quantum Sound Quantum mechanics is a field of physics that studies the behavior of very small objects such as atoms and subatomic particles. Particles in the quantum…
Quasioptics The study of the behavior of electromagnetic radiation, particularly light, when the wavelength is equivalent to the size of optical components is known as quasioptics.…
Sonoluminescence – a flare of light The emission of light from collapsing bubbles in a liquid when stimulated by sound is known as sonoluminescence. When little gas bubbles in a liquid…
This is Why Belly Flops Are So Painful Doing a belly flop into the water can hurt, as anyone who’s ever been slightly tipsy by a pool, peered up at a diving board,…
Acousto-optics – a Branch of Physics Acousto-optics is the study of the interaction of acoustic (sound) waves and light (optical) waves in a medium. It is the study of the interactions…
