Oxford Physicists Reach Fourth-Order Quantum Squeezing With Trapped Ion
May 04, 2026 (SPX)
The work builds on a well-established quantum technique called squeezing. In quantum mechanics, the precision with which pairs of properties -- such as position...
Chandra Finds X-ray Dot That May Unlock Mystery of Little Red Dots in the Early Universe
Apr 29, 2026 (SPX)
Shortly after NASA's James Webb Space Telescope began its science observations, astronomers reported a new class of mysterious compact, red objects located roug...
Butterfly Wing Pattern Emerges From Hundreds of Fractional Quantum Hall States in Ultra-Cold Magnetic Fields
Apr 29, 2026 (SPX)
Integer quantum Hall states are explained by multiple Landau levels fully occupied by free electrons, producing an energy gap in the bulk of the system. FQH sta...
Astronomers Open 2.5 Petabyte FLAMINGO Simulation Archive to Global Research
Apr 29, 2026 (SPX)
The release is described in a paper submitted to the journal Astronomy and Computing on April 28 and published simultaneously as a preprint. Cosmological simula...
UMD Physicists Find Crystal Symmetry Controls Nuclear Spin States of Molecular Hydrogen
Apr 29, 2026 (SPX)
Molecular hydrogen exists in two nuclear spin configurations: para-H2, in which the spins of the two hydrogen atoms cancel, and ortho-H2, in which they add toge...
Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxies May Carry Echoes of the Earliest Universe
Apr 24, 2026 (SPX)
Azadeh Fattahi, Associate Professor at the Oskar Klein Centre (OKC) and leader of the research group, headed the work in collaboration with teams from Durham Un...
Brown University Physicists Propose Topology of Space-Time as Solution to Cosmological Constant Puzzle
Apr 23, 2026 (SPX)
The cosmological constant is the mathematical description of the energy driving the ever-accelerating expansion of the cosmos. Quantum field theory (QFT), the l...
Relic Black Holes From Before the Big Bang May Still Shape Galaxies Today
Apr 16, 2026 (SPX)
The study suggests the Universe may not have begun with a single explosive origin but may instead align with cosmic bounce models, in which the Universe emerged...
Molecular vibrations hurl electrons at extreme speeds
Mar 11, 2026 (SPX)
In experiments that captured events lasting just 18 femtoseconds, less than 20 quadrillionths of a second, researchers at the University of Cambridge observed c...
New HETDEX map uncovers hidden hydrogen structures in early cosmos
Mar 11, 2026 (SPX)
"Observing the early universe gives us an idea of how galaxies evolved into their current form, and what role intergalactic gas played in this process," said Ma...
New study reveals unusual nonquantum magnetic state in cerium compound
Mar 11, 2026 (SPX)
The work, published in Science Advances, was co-led by Rice University physicist Pengcheng Dai. The research team set out to understand why CeMgAl11O19, an insu...
Record LOFAR Radio Sky Map Charts Millions Of Growing Black Holes
Feb 23, 2026 (SPX)
By tuning in to low frequency radio waves, the survey provides a strikingly different view of the cosmos than optical telescopes, tracing relativistic particles...
From Mars to Exoplanets How Astronomers Compare Worlds Across Impossible Scales
Feb 19, 2026 (SPX)
The Necessity of Shared Measurement Systems In daily life, we use miles or kilometers to measure distance. However, using these units in space would result in n...
Dusty early galaxies shed new light on how the universe built its first giants
Feb 18, 2026 (SPX)
These galaxies appear to provide a missing evolutionary step that links ultradistant, extremely bright galaxies observed at around 13.3 billion years ago with m...
Experiments settle debate over how Molybdenum 93 isomer releases stored energy
Feb 17, 2026 (SPX)
Nuclear isomers are long lived excited states of atomic nuclei that can store large amounts of energy. They are considered candidates for applications such as n...
Muon study clarifies superconducting behavior in strontium ruthenate
Feb 17, 2026 (SPX)
For many years SRO214 was widely regarded as a candidate spin-triplet superconductor, in which paired electrons retain magnet-like characteristics and can poten...
Einstein probe catch may show black hole shredding white dwarf
Feb 16, 2026 (SPX)
During a routine sky survey on July 2 2025 the mission's Wide field X ray Telescope detected a rapidly varying X ray source that immediately stood out from ordi...
Illinois team outlines emit-then-add route to photonic graph states
Feb 16, 2026 (SPX)
Photonic graph states are central resources for measurement-based quantum computing and a range of quantum communication and sensing protocols. However, most ex...
Infrared archive reveals quiet birth of new black hole in Andromeda
Feb 16, 2026 (SPX)
The object, cataloged as M31-2014-DS1, sits about 2.5 million light years from Earth in the neighboring Andromeda galaxy. A typical massive star death produces ...
Quantum team reads information from robust Majorana qubits using quantum capacitance
Feb 16, 2026 (SPX)
Topological qubits based on Majorana zero modes are designed to protect quantum information by storing it non locally rather than at a single point in a device....
