Researchers have discovered a simple yet powerful way to protect atoms from losing information—a key challenge in developing ...
Scientists have discovered a revolutionary new method for creating quantum states by twisting materials at the M-point, revealing exotic phenomena previously out of reach. This new direction ...
Recent physics studies have found that light can sometimes flow in unexpected ways, behaving like a so-called "superfluid." Superfluids, such as ultracold atomic gases or helium-4 below specific ...
An international team of scientists led by Rice University's Pengcheng Dai has confirmed the existence of emergent photons and fractionalized spin excitations in a rare quantum spin liquid. Published ...
In a breakthrough that could transform the understanding of quantum magnetism, scientists have shown that a spinon, which was ...
Electric charge is no longer required to carry information as scientists find a practical way to use spintronics in graphene.
Particles orbiting a black hole could collide at colossal energies, generating collision products that may offer valuable ...
Advanced quantum technology needs integrated cryogenic control. Professor David Reilly and colleagues at the University of ...
And like so many fundamental facts in physics, spin was found to be technologically useful as well. In the second half of the 20th century, spin was harnessed to develop lasers, ...
By borrowing from the physics of spin glasses, later researchers working on AI could “use all these tools that have been developed for the physics of these old systems.” In 2024, Hopfield and his ...
