Mysteriously Mundane Turbulence Revealed in 2D Superfluid
Despite existing everywhere, the quantum world is a foreign place where many of the rules of daily life don’t apply. Quantum objects jump through solid walls; quantum entanglement connects the fates of particles no matter how far they are separated; and quantum objects may… Read More - Research News
A New Piece in the Matter–Antimatter Puzzle
aOn March 24, 2025 at the annual Rencontres de Moriond conference taking place in La Thuile, Italy, the LHCb collaboration at CERN reported a new milestone in our understanding of the subtle yet profound differences between matter and antimatter. In its analysis of large… Read More - Research News
Researchers Play a Microscopic Game of Darts with Melted Gold
Sometimes, what seems like a fantastical or improbable chain of events is just another day at the office for a physicist. In a recent experiment by University of Maryland researchers at the Laboratory for Physical Sciences, a scene played out that would be right… Read More - Research News
IceCube Search for Extremely High-energy Neutrinos Contributes to Understanding of Cosmic Rays
Neutrinos are chargeless, weakly interacting particles that are able to travel undeflected through the cosmos. The IceCube Neutrino Observatory at the South Pole searches for the sources of these astrophysical neutrinos in order to understand the origin of high-energy particles called cosmic rays and,… Read More - Research News
Twisted Light Gives Electrons a Spinning Kick
It’s hard to tell when you’re catching some rays at the beach, but light packs a punch. Not only does a beam of light carry energy, it can also carry momentum. This includes linear momentum, which is what makes a speeding train hard to… Read More - Research News
Repurposing Qubit Tech to Explore Exotic Superconductivity
Decades of quantum research are now being transformed into practical technologies, including the superconducting circuits that are being used in physics research and built into small quantum computers by companies like IBM and Google. The established knowledge and technical infrastructure are allowing researchers to harness quantum technologies in… Read More - Research News
New Design Packs Two Qubits into One Superconducting Junction
Quantum computers are potentially revolutionary devices and the basis of a growing industry. However, their technology isn’t standardized yet, and researchers are still studying the physics behind the diverse ways to build these quantum devices. Even the most basic building blocks of a quantum… Read More - Research News
HAWC Finds High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emissions from Microquasar V4641 Sagittarii
A new study in Nature, “Ultra-high-energy gamma-ray bubble around microquasar V4641 Sgr," has revealed a groundbreaking discovery by researchers from the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory: TeV gamma-ray emissions from V4641 Sagittarii (V4641 Sgr), a binary system composed of a black hole and a main sequence… Read More - Research News
