A new study has addressed this bottleneck by proving the existence of a nuclear-spin dark state. This state has been ...

Researchers have discovered various topological structures in water waves (skyrmions, merons, Möbius and vortices with ...

Researchers have been working for decades to understand the architecture of the subatomic world. One of the knottier questions has been where the proton gets its intrinsic angular momentum, otherwise ...

Quantum computers have the potential to revolutionize technology by solving complex calculations and computations that are ...

Quantum calculations amount to sophisticated estimates. But in 1931, Hans Bethe intuited precisely how a chain of particles ...

This new device generates spin-orbit photonic qudits, which encode information in light by manipulating its shape (orbital angular momentum) and twist (polarization). Instead of encoding information ...

Researchers have discovered unexpected 1D-like spin behavior in a triangular molecular lattice, challenging the conventional ...
