How do we know that time exists? Our entire lives are regulated by clocks, but what they measure is less certain. How can we be…
Neutron scattering revealed spin correlations of iron trichloride. An artist’s depiction interprets the scattering that provides evidence of a spiral spin liquid state. Credit: Jacquelyn…
On the one-year anniversary of achieving a yield of more than 1.3 megajoules at LLNL’s National Ignition Facility, the scientific results of this record experiment…
Engineers at Caltech observed an unusual phenomenon in twisted trilayer graphene. So-called “magic-angle twisted grapheneGraphene is an allotrope of carbon in the form of a…
New experiments hone in on a never-before-measured region of strong force coupling, a quantity that supports theories accounting for 99 percent of the ordinary mass…
A team of physicists from UNLV’s Nevada Extreme Conditions Lab (NEXCL) used a diamond anvil cell, a research device similar to the one pictured, in…
Artist impression of the flow-driven DNA rotor. Credit: Cees Dekker Lab / SciXel Scientists have constructed the smallest flow-driven motors in the world. Inspired by…
This illustration represents the light-induced collapse of the nanoscale charge order in a 2D crystal of tantalum disulfide (star-shapes) and the generation of a hidden…
The researchers discovered that a new theoretical framework to unify Hermitian and non-Hermitian physics is established by the duality between non-Hermiticity and curved spaces. A…
Microparticles clustering around a Janus particle. The dashed line delineates the lasing area, and the pink/yellow lines show the tracks of several microparticles. Credit: Imperial…
Physicists have created a remarkable, never-before-seen phase of matter in a quantum computer. Physicists demonstrated a way of storing quantum information that is less prone…
An infrared pulse (blue) excites the electron dynamics in bulk Na3Bi. Due to strong spin-orbit coupling, the ‘spin-up’ electrons (red arrow) and ‘spin-down’ electrons (blue…
A new technique to measure vibrating atoms could improve the precision of atomic clocks and of quantum sensors for detecting dark matter or gravitational wavesGravitational…
What is dark matter? Does it even exist, or do we just need an adjustment to our theory of gravity? What is dark matter? It…

Long predicted but never observed, fluid-like electron whirlpools could be leveraged for next-gen low-power electronics. Credit: Christine Daniloff, MIT Long predicted but never observed before,…
Scientists at MIT have developed a method to enable such quantum sensors to detect any arbitrary frequency, with no loss of their ability to measure…
Dark matter was proposed to explain why stars at a galaxy’s far edge were able to move much faster than predicted with Newton. An alternative…
Event recorded with the CMS detector in 2012 at a proton-proton center of mass energy of 8 TeV. The event shows characteristics expected from the…
