DARPA launches a new initiative exploring altermagnetism, physics’ strangest frontier, to power next-gen defense technologies ...

Quantum computers, which operate leveraging quantum mechanics phenomena, could eventually tackle some optimization and ...

Quantum defects are tiny imperfections in solid crystal lattices that can trap individual electrons and their "spin" (i.e., ...

Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) constitute a platform to explore various quantum effects. Their size-dependent colors are essentially a naked-eye, ambient-condition visualization of the quantum ...

Scientists have created spin waves with record wavelengths, a breakthrough that could lead to faster, more efficient, and ...

Spin waves are considered to be promising candidates for a new form of electronics. Instead of electrons, the focus here is ...

Exotic spin-dependent interactions represent a promising avenue for probing physics beyond the Standard Model. These interactions, hypothesised to be mediated by new light bosons, couple to the ...

Iron-rich hematite, commonly found in rocks and soil, turns out to have magnetic properties that make it a promising material for ultrafast next-generation computing. In 2023, EPFL researchers ...

Yes, I did, including the slow motion. Did you? The motion is imparting spin to the end by rolling it between your folded finger and thumb while dropping it. There is no “flick”. Your finger never ...
