At temperatures approaching absolute zero, most magnetic materials settle into tidy patterns. Their tiny magnetic moments, or ...

In recent months, Ireland became an associate member of Cern, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research. This is a very welcome development for physicists, engineers and computer scientists ...

An international team combining two major neutrino experiments has uncovered stronger evidence that neutrinos and antimatter don’t behave as perfect mirror images. That subtle difference may hold the ...

The Schrödinger equation rewrote the rules of matter and forever changed the field of chemistry. Donald Truhlar, a chemist at the University of Minnesota, calls it the “greatest advance of the 20th ...

Another theory held that the forces between two particles falls off exponentially in direct relationship to the distance between two particles and that the factor by which it drops is not dependent on ...

Scientists developed a theory linking mobile and static behaviors of a particle in a Fermi sea, explaining quasiparticles and quantum states. (Nanowerk News) A new unified theory connects two ...

Deep beneath the planet’s surface, Earth’s core behaves in a way scientists have struggled to explain for decades, with consequences for how the planet moves and protects itself. New evidence now ...

Rendering of dusty nanoparticles suspended in a glowing plasma cloud, where magnetic fields guide their motion and growth, showing how even weak magnetism can reshape matter at the nanoscale. Credit: ...

Scientists have uncovered a previously unthinkable state of matter that challenges decades of assumptions about how electrons behave, opening novel possibilities for quantum computing, sensing and ...

At TU Wien, researchers have discovered a state in a quantum material that had previously been considered impossible. The definition of topological states should be generalized. The work is published ...
