Heaviest Schrödinger cat achieved by putting a small crystal into a superposition of two oscillation states
Scientists at ETH Zurich have made progress in creating heavier Schrödinger cats, which can be alive (top) and dead (bottom) at the same time. Credit: ETH Zurich Even if you…
Sleeping pill reduces levels of Alzheimer’s proteins
What: Researcher at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis will discuss the study which involved a sleeping aid known as suvorexant that is already approved by the Food and Drug…
Farm waste turned into air-cleaning substance
Newswise — Air pollution and its high concentration in cities is one of the problems facing society today, due to its harmful effects on the environment, but also on human…
Teasing Strange Matter from the Ordinary
Newswise — NEWPORT NEWS, VA – In a unique analysis of experimental data, nuclear physicists have made the first-ever observations of how lambda particles, so-called “strange matter,” are produced by…
The comprehensive characterization of hydrogen at ultra-high pressures
Sequence of high-pressure hydrogen phases in the 300–600 GPa pressure range, according to the team’s theoretical calculations. The researchers report a projection of the structures on the a-b plane and…
New insights into quantum materials
(a) Pictorial view of the starlike lattice reconstruction in the CDW phase of 1T−TaSe2. (b) Surface-projected Brillouin zone (BZ) of the undistorted “normal” state. The red dashed lines mimic the Fermi surface…
Laser light hybrids control giant currents at ultrafast times
Circularly polarized laser pulse (a-c) versus a hencomb laser pulse (d-f). The vector potential of a circularly polarized lightwave applied to the two dimensional material Tungsten Diselenide generates no residual…
