A new device uses millimeter-wave radiation to accurately read the states of superconducting qubits without altering them.
The Rubin Observatory has spotted a distant object that could join Pluto in the Solar System’s exclusive family of dwarf ...
In a nonlinear Hall effect (NLHE), an electric field applied in the plane of a material induces a transverse voltage that depends nonlinearly on the field. This voltage can scale with either an odd or ...
Flat bands harbor exotic electron physics. A new way of realizing them could make the physics more accessible.
Molecular “locks” that fit many “keys” may allow different plant mating strategies to coexist within a population of a single plant species. Figure 1: Many flowering plants like these petunias produce ...
Lab experiments provide new details about the charge-transfer process that occurs in ash clouds and other collections of particles. Electric volcano. Triboelectric charging caused by collisions of ash ...
Topological superconductors hold promise for fault-tolerant quantum computing, but isolating signatures of the desired topological states has proven an elusive goal. A new study of an iron-based ...
A device that stores a single positron and controls its quantum states could measure its magnetic moment with unprecedented precision, testing a symmetry principle central to quantum field theory.
Experiments show that bundling of individual strands of an important protein polymer can occur through capillary forces, not just through molecular binding.
