Scientists discover energy and pressure analogies linking hadrons, superconductors and cosmic expansion
A depiction of how equilibrium is maintained in hadrons. Pressure from quarks and gluons (outward-pointing purple arrows) balances against pressure from trace anomaly and sigma terms (inward-pointing blue arrows). Credit:…
Scientists integrate solid-state spin qubits with nanomechanical resonators
Spin qubits (orange) inside diamond nanopillars are moved (black arrows) over a magnetically-functionalized mechanical resonator (blue), enabling mechanically-mediated spin-spin interactions. Credit: Frankie Fung. In a new Physical Review Letters study,…
