All-nitride superconducting qubit made on a silicon substrate Researchers at the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT, President: Tokuda Hideyuki, Ph.D.), in collaboration with researchers at the National Institute of Advanced In …
How glacier tables are formed A trio of researchers at the University of Lyon, has learned via lab experimentation how glacier tables are formed. Marceau Hénot, Nicolas Plihon and Nicolas Taberlet have published their findings in …
New technology makes it possible to see clearly through murky water Researchers have developed a new method that can automatically produce clear images through murky water. The new technology could be useful for searching for drowning victims, documenting submerged ar …
Physicists make square droplets and liquid lattices When two substances are brought together, they will eventually settle into a steady state called thermodynamic equilibrium; examples include oil floating on top of water and milk mixing uniformly into …
Have we detected dark energy? Scientists say it's a possibility A new study, led by researchers at the University of Cambridge and reported in the journal Physical Review D, suggests that some unexplained results from the XENON1T experiment in Italy may have been …
Lasers light up neutron generation for radiography Getting snapshots of systems and processes at precise time points is important to research and development in many fields, including biology, materials science, and engineering. Firing a neutron beam …
Triangular honeycombs: Physicists design novel quantum material Smartphones, notebooks and other electronic devices of our everyday life strongly benefit from the ever-increasing miniaturization of semiconductor devices. This development comes however at a price: …
Physicist observes the first unpaired Weyl magnetic monopole Similar to a magnet that always has both south and north poles, a kind of special quasiparticles in condensed matter called "Weyl Fermions" always appear in pairs with opposite chirality. Th …
Using acoustics to conceal and simulate objects When listening to music, we don't just hear the notes produced by the instruments, we are also immersed in its echoes from our surroundings. Sound waves bounce back off the walls and objects arou …
Study provides evidence for 'new physics' Is the Standard Model of particle physics incorrect at key points? Recently there has been an increase in experimental observations that deviate from the predictions of this widely accepted physical t …
