CERN results may violate the standard model of particle physics

March 23, 2021
New results from CERN's Large Hadron Collider, beauty (LHCb) strengthen hints of a violation of lepton flavour universality and suggest the existence of a new fundamental particle or interaction. Comparisons...

A novel light harvesting engine strings buckyballs and chromophores on DNA

February 26, 2021
Researchers have synthesised a novel type of organic light-harvesting supramolecule by arranging fluorescent dyes and bucky balls in three-dimensions using a DNA scaffold. The resulting helical string of electron donors...

Not just a droplet: Explaining one dimensional quantum liquid formation

January 22, 2021
A new type of quantum droplet - the most dilute liquids ever experimentally observed - helps unravel the mechanism leading to the formation of one dimensional self-bound quantum liquids in...

Let the countdown commence with atomic accuracy

Quantum technology spins into scalability

December 11, 2020
A multi-disciplinary team has published proof-of-concept for a powerful and scalable quantum technology. The researchers have demonstrated that bottom-up chemical synthesis enables quantum information to be encoded directly into a...

Graphene researchers throw physics out the window

November 16, 2020
A Manchester University graphene research team has just thrown the physics textbook out of the proverbial window. Fundamental physics teaches us that the trajectory of an electron will bend under...

Error forecasting for safer fusion energy

September 24, 2020
Bringing the power of the sun to Earth requires sound theory, good engineering, and a little finesse. The process entails trapping charged, ultra-hot gas known as plasma so its particles...

Plugging the power leak for fusion reactions

August 6, 2020
Scientists have found a novel way to prevent pesky magnetic bubbles in plasma from interfering with fusion reactions - delivering a potential way to improve the performance of fusion energy...

Instant diagnostic photonics scan for bladder cancer (BLC)

July 2, 2020
Thousands of lives lost to bladder cancers each year could be saved thanks to a new scanner that uses photonics to illuminate parts of the tissue that are currently impossible...

Orbitronics: the next step for Moore’s Law?

May 18, 2020
SLAC scientists have broken the link between a quantum material's spin and orbital states, opening a path toward a new generation of logic and memory devices to increase the efficiency...
