Solitonic superfluorescence paves way for high-temperature quantum materials
Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain A study in Nature describes both the mechanism and the material conditions necessary for superfluorescence at room temperature. The work could serve as a blueprint for…
Exotic quasiparticles in the coldest corners of the universe
Researchers inject an impurity into a one-dimensional ultracold gas, thereby generating a quasiparticle with exotic properties. Credit: University of Innsbruck Nature categorizes particles into two fundamental types: fermions and bosons.…
First-of-its-kind measurement may help physicists learn about gluons, which hold together nuclei in atoms
The GlueX detector system. Credit: Jefferson Lab photo/Aileen Devlin A team of physicists has embarked on a journey where few others have gone: into the glue that binds atomic nuclei.…
Diamond nanoparticles get a quantum upgrade with shell inspired by TV technology
By encasing a diamond nanoparticle with a specially engineered shell—a technique inspired by QLED televisions—the team created a quantum biosensor ideal for a living cell. Credit: Jason Smith Putting hypersensitive…
