THE tenets of physics can seem carved in stone. The speed of light is a constant. There are four fundamental forces. Theoretically, rules like these are open to revision. But new contenders had better ...

Machine learning has emerged as a powerful tool in condensed matter physics, offering new perspectives on the exploration of quantum many-body systems, phase transitions and exotic states of matter.

An international team of researchers has created a new structure that allows the tuning of topological properties in such a way as to turn on or off these unique behaviors. The structure could open up ...
