Helimagnets are a set of naturally occurring materials in which the electrons arrange themselves into spirals. Some tiny electrically-conducting helimagnets could mimic an inductor—coils of wire that control the flow…

Theoretical modeling illuminates a new nonlinear Hall Effect
(a) Shows how the materials are layered in the heterostructure with six magnetic MBT septuple layers (SLs) and BP layers on top and bottom. (b) Shows atom arrangement in a…
A deep look into the dipolar quantum world
Much like a ship built in a glass bottle, the quantum gas microscope features its vacuum chamber and lens in a single glass cell, with lasers creating a light crystal…
Scientists demonstrate the existence of a universal lower bound on topological entanglement entropy
When the constant-depth circuit is removed, the value of topological entanglement entropy (γ) computed from the state returns to the ideal value (γ₀). Credit: Dr. Bowen Shi. In a new…
LLNL leads initiative to advance muon-based imaging
Newswise — Today we can see inside seemingly impossible places—nuclear reactors, volcanoes, tsunamis, hurricanes, and Egypt’s Great Pyramid of Giza—thanks to muon imaging. This technique uses naturally occurring subatomic particles…
From nanoplastics to airborne toxins: Pollution stories for media.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), air pollution is responsible for 6.7 million premature deaths each year. This includes both outdoor air pollution and indoor air pollution from cooking,…
