In Global Collaboration, Indiana University Scientists Unlock Secrets to Universe’s Building Blocks
Newswise — Scientists at Indiana University have achieved a breakthrough in understanding the universe thanks to a collaboration between two major international experiments studying neutrinos, which are ubiquitous, tiny particles…
Monitoring Underwater Bridge Tunnels With the Help of High-Energy Muons
Newswise — WASHINGTON, Sept. 16, 2025 – Over 200 underwater bridge tunnels exist for vehicular traffic around the world, providing connectivity between cities. Once constructed, however, these tunnels are difficult…
Twist of Light: New Tool May Unlock Gravity, Quantum Mechanics Link
Newswise — A team of physicists has uncovered a surprising new way to explore one of science’s greatest challenges: uniting the two fundamental theories that explain how our universe works…
Altermagnetism: A Magnetic Family Member
Newswise — There is now a new addition to the magnetic family: thanks to experiments at the Swiss Light Source SLS, researchers have proved the existence of altermagnetism. The experimental…
Short light pulses reveal hidden movements
Newswise — When electrons move within a molecule or semiconductor, this occurs on unimaginably short time scales. A Swedish-German including physicist Dr Jan Vogelsang from the University of Oldenburg has…
Manipulating nonlinear exciton polaritons in an atomically-thin semiconductor with artificial potential landscapes
Newswise — Exciton polaritons, hybrid quasiparticles caused by the strong exciton-photon coupling, constitute a unique prototype for studying many-body physics and quantum photonic phenomena traditionally in cryogenic conditions. Atomically thin…
