For the first time, an international team of scientists has experimentally simulated spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) at zero temperature using a superconducting quantum processor. This achievement ...

In a review just published in Nature Materials, researchers take aim at the oldest principle in electronics: Ohm's law.

Centrosymmetric crystals have always absorbed equal amounts of left- and right-handed circularly polarized light—until now ...

The initiation of immunoglobulin-E (IgE)-mediated allergic responses requires the binding of IgE antibody to its high-affinity receptor, FcεRI. Crosslinking of FcεRI initiates an intracellular ...

Along with a mildly worrisome comment about "cracking" the story, the director also tossed out the hypothetical that they "go down the road of John Wick 5" but "decide this isn't right." "If we go ...

Researchers use circularly polarized light to control the direction of exciton polaritons in 2D semiconductors, enabling new tools for nanoscale photonics.

The incident is in Colwyn BayA55 closed The A55 has been closed in both directions due to a police incident. North Wales Police released a statement. They said: "Junction 20 on the A55 in Colwyn ...

An international collaboration of researchers from China, Spain, Denmark, and Brazil has successfully simulated ...

T-symmetry offers insights into the nature of time, revealing how fundamental physical laws remain invariant under time ...

Today, more than 600 particle physicists from nearly 100 universities and laboratories came together on the University of Minnesota's Minneapolis campus. Over the next nine days, this diverse group of ...

An object with such consistent symmetry should respond the same way to light coming from one direction or its mirror image, right? Likewise, if exposed to circularly polarized light (ie light that ...

Background Diamond, the hardest material in nature, presents unique challenges for polishing due to its anisotropic hardness, which changes with crystallographic orientation. While polishing some ...
