A network in which data transmission is perfectly secure against hacking? If physicists have their way, this will become reality...
Researchers have developed a new technique to better measure special “terahertz” light. This light travels in waves longer than the...
Germanium telluride is a strong candidate for use in functional spintronic devices due to its giant Rashba-effect. Now, scientists at...
University of Chicago physicists have invented a “quantum flute” that, like the Pied Piper, can coerce particles of light to...
If you switch a bit in the memory of a computer and then switch it back again, you have restored...
An international team of scientists featuring Florida State University researchers has developed a model that predicts the spread of vortices...
A lot of heat gets lost during the conversion of energy. Estimates even put it at more than 70%. However,...
Using a new method, scientists are better able to distinguish between mirror-image substances. This is important amongst others in drug...
Physicists observed a strange new type of behavior in a magnetic material when it’s heated up. The magnetic spins “freeze”...
Today, exactly ten years after announcing the discovery of the Higgs boson, the international ATLAS and CMS collaborations at the...
Ten years after it discovered the Higgs boson, the Large Hadron Collider is about to start smashing protons together at...
It may seem like technology advances year after year, as if by magic. But behind every incremental improvement and breakthrough...
