Astronomers confirm age of most distant galaxy with oxygen
Jan 25, 2023 (SPX)
The galaxy, named GHZ2/GLASS-z12, was initially identified in the JWST GLASS survey, a survey that observes the distant Universe and behind massive clusters of ...
Physical effect also valid in the quantum world
Jan 22, 2023 (SPX)
Suppose in front of you there is a container filled with an unknown liquid. Your goal is to find out by how much the particles in it (atoms or molecules) move b...
Shedding light on quantum photonics
Jan 19, 2023 (SPX)
Developmentally, however, quantum devices today are "about where the computer was in the 1950s," which it is to say, the very beginning. That's according to Kam...
Revealing the thermal heat dance of magnetic domains
Jan 19, 2023 (SPX)
Now, a collaboration lead by scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory, Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB), the Massachusetts I...
Can you trust your quantum simulator
Jan 19, 2023 (SPX)
Scientists hope that any new understanding gained from quantum simulators will provide blueprints for designing new exotic materials, smarter and more efficient...
Researchers create an optical tractor beam that pulls macroscopic objects
Jan 18, 2023 (SPX)
Light contains both energy and momentum that can be used for various types of optical manipulation such as levitation and rotation. Optical tweezers, for exampl...
XMM-Newton spies black holes eating the same stars again and again
Jan 13, 2023 (ESA)
Supermassive black holes lie at the centres of most galaxies. Their masses range from hundreds of thousands to billions of times the mass of our Sun. Despite th...
Cosmic superbubble's magnetic field charted in 3D for the first time
Jan 12, 2023 (SPX)
The map reveals the likely magnetic field structure of the Local Bubble - a giant, 1,000-light-year-wide hollow in space surrounding our Sun. Like a hunk of Swi...
Astronomers dig out buried black holes with NASA's Chandra
Jan 12, 2023 (SPX)
The black holes in this new study are the supermassive variety that contain millions or even billions of times the mass of the Sun. While astronomers think that...
Webb reveals wide diversity of galaxies in the early universe
Jan 10, 2023 (SPX)
The study examined 850 galaxies at redshifts of z three through nine, or as they were roughly 11-13 billion years ago. Associate Professor Jeyhan Kartaltepe fro...
Physicists confirm effective wave growth theory in space
Jan 06, 2023 (SPX)
When people imagine outer space, they often envision it as a perfect vacuum. In fact, this impression is wrong because the vacuum is filled with charged particl...
New type of entanglement lets scientists 'see' inside nuclei
Jan 05, 2023 (SPX)
Through a series of quantum fluctuations, the particles of light (a.k.a. photons) interact with gluons-gluelike particles that hold quarks together within the p...
Modified gravity, galactic rotation curves, modified inertia and dark matter
Jan 01, 2023 (SPX)
This opens up the possibility that gravity's law may be subtly different from general relativity while keeping all its experimental successes (known generally a...
SPIDER launches from Antarctica
Dec 27, 2022 (SPX)
Nagy, an assistant professor of physics in Arts and Sciences, is one of a team of scientists who will use the SPIDER instrument to look for a pattern, or polari...
New technique reveals changing shapes of magnetic noise in space and time
Dec 27, 2022 (SPX)
"Noise is usually thought of as a nuisance, but physicists can learn many things by studying noise," said Nathalie de Leon, an associate professor of electrical...
Three time dimensions, one space dimension
Dec 27, 2022 (SPX)
Also the very concept of time would be completely transformed - a superluminal world would have to be characterized with three time dimensions and one spatial d...
Measuring gamma-ray bursts' hidden energy unearths clues to the evolution of the universe
Dec 20, 2022 (SPX)
Gamma-ray bursts emit gamma rays as well as radio waves, optical lights, and X-rays. When the conversion of explosion energy to emitted energy, i.e., the conver...
What triggers flow fluctuations in heavy-ion collision debris
Dec 20, 2022 (SPX)
The matter these physicists are interested in is called a quark-gluon plasma (QGP)-a trillion-degree soup of quarks and gluons. These are the most fundamental b...
Measuring times in billionths of a billionth of a second
Dec 18, 2022 (SPX)
Scientists at the Australian Attosecond Science Facility and the Centre for Quantum Dynamics of Griffith University in Brisbane Australia, led by Professor Robe...
Researchers create ultracold triatomic gas of high phase-space density for the first time
Dec 15, 2022 (SPX)
The use of highly controllable ultracold molecules in the simulation of complex chemical reactions allows for an accurate and comprehensive study of complex sys...
