Cambridge scientists capture electrons leaping across solar materials in 18 femtoseconds
A tiny burst of motion inside a molecule may be enough to shove an electron across a solar…
How 128 New Signals Are Expanding Our Universe
In the depths of the universe, where black holes collide and neutron stars crash, invisible ripples in spacetime…
High-temperature superconducting dome mapped in nickelate thin films
Physicists hunting for new superconductors often look for a very specific shape hidden in their data—a dome. In…
A perfectly balanced atom just broke one of nuclear physics’ biggest rules
For many years, nuclear physicists believed that “Islands of Inversion” were found mainly in isotopes packed with extra…
Quantum tech breakthrough: China’s double-photon device breaks efficiency ceiling
