Astronomers have gotten very good at spotting the signs of planet formation around stars. But for a complete understanding of planet formation, we also need to study examples where planet…
A team of scientists at the QOT Centre for Quantum Optical Technologies, including a student from the Faculty of Physics (University of Warsaw), made a device capable of the conversion…
H.E.S.S. observatory records 20 tera-electronvolts photons from the Vela pulsar. Scientists using the H.E.S.S. observatory in Namibia have detected the highest energy gamma rays ever from a dead star called…
Defects can make a material stronger or make it fail catastrophically; Knowing how fast they travel can help researchers understand things like earthquake ruptures, structural failures and precision manufacturing. Settling…
NIST researchers find a new quantum ruler to explore exotic matter. A single-atom-thick sheet of carbon known as graphene has remarkable properties on its own, but things can get even…
Researchers at the IBS Center for Quantum Nanoscience (QNS) at Ewha Womans University have accomplished a groundbreaking step forward in quantum information science. In partnership with teams from Japan, Spain,…
