Optically generated quantum fluids of light reveal exotic matter-wave states in condensed matter physics
Oct 01, 2021 (SPX)
This so-called Lieb lattice, which usually does not occur in nature, enabled the team to demonstrate breakthrough results important for condensed matter physics...
Quantum photonics based on metasurfaces
Oct 01, 2021 (SPX)
This paper summarizes recent works on quantum optics based on micro/nano structures. Since its birth, quantum optics has been full of controversies with the loc...
Scientists recreate cosmic reactions to unlock astronomical mysteries
Oct 01, 2021 (SPX)
This question has been at the core of nuclear physics for the better part of a century. At the beginning of the 20th century, scientists discovered that element...
How to catch a perfect wave: scientists take a closer look inside the perfect fluid
Sep 20, 2021 (SPX)
A few millionths of a second after the Big Bang, the early universe took on a strange new state: a subatomic soup called the quark-gluon plasma. And just 15 yea...
This is what it looks like when a black hole snacks on a star
Sep 20, 2021 (SPX)
But whereas one might leave behind droppings of pasta or splatters of yogurt, the other creates an aftermath of mind-boggling proportions. When a black hole gob...
A gem of a lab will bring the world of quantum physics into the light
Sep 15, 2021 (SPX)
Leading the collaboration to develop a new quantum sensor, under a highly competitive three-year, $5.2-million award from the DOE, is David Graves, PPPL associa...
Quasars as Cosmic Standard Candles
Sep 14, 2021 (SPX)
In order to extend the distance scale back to earlier times in cosmic history, astronomers have used supernovae (SN) - the explosive deaths of massive stars - w...
New research takes us closer to figuring out supermassive black holes
Sep 14, 2021 (SPX)
Gravitational waves were first observed in 2015, but they were detected from much smaller black holes, which weigh like tens times our Sun. Gravitational waves ...
Largest virtual universe free for anyone to explore
Sep 13, 2021 (SPX)
Uchuu (meaning "Outer Space" in Japanese) is the largest and most realistic simulation of the Universe to date. The Uchuu simulation consists of 2.1 trillion pa...
Physicists discover black holes exert a pressure in serendipitous scientific first
Sep 13, 2021 (SPX)
In 1974 Stephen Hawking made the seminal discovery that black holes emit thermal radiation. Previous to that, black holes were believed to be inert, the final s...
Groundbreaking technique yields important new details on possible 'fifth force'
Sep 10, 2021 (SPX)
The research was an international collaboration conducted at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Dmitry Pushin, a member of the Universit...
Laser solid-phase synthesis of single atom catalysts
Sep 09, 2021 (SPX)
As the size of metal nanoparticles decreases to a few nanometers, or down to atomic levels, their catalytic performance can be effectively improved due to incre...
Researchers reveal a novel metal where electrons flow with fluid-like dynamics
Sep 07, 2021 (SPX)
Working with colleagues from the University of Texas at Dallas and Florida State University, Boston College Assistant Professor of Physics Fazel Tafti found in ...
New wave of electron research
Sep 03, 2021 (SPX)
A long-standing dream of solid state physicists is to fully understand the phenomenon of superconductivity - essentially electronic conduction without the resis...
Quantum emitters: Beyond crystal clear to single-photon pure
Sep 03, 2021 (SPX)
A research team under Professor Yong-Hoon Cho has developed a technique that can isolate the desired quality emitter by reducing the noise surrounding the targe...
Putting a new theory of many-particle quantum systems to the test
Sep 03, 2021 (SPX)
The result could greatly simplify the study of quantum systems that have been excited out of equilibrium. Besides its fundamental importance, it could eventuall...
New quantum algorithm calculates energy difference of an atom, molecule
Sep 02, 2021 (UPI)
The new algorithm, described Thursday in the journal Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, will help scientists study electronic states of atomic or molecular sy...
Higher-order topological bound states in the continuum
Sep 02, 2021 (SPX)
There are several routes to realize the localization, such as Anderson localization, topological boundary state, Moire lattice, and bound-state in the continuum...
