Raman scattering spectroscopy is a necessary and accurate method to characterize lattice structure and probe electron-photon and electron-phonon interactions. In the quantum realm, electrons at the ground states can be excited to intermediate energy levels […]
A new atomic nucleus of lutetium, 149Lu consisting of 71 protons and 78 neutrons, has been synthesized in an experiment performed in the Accelerator Laboratory of University of Jyväskylä, Finland. Click to rate this post! […]
Researchers from the Institute of the Modern Physics (IMP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and their collaborators from France, Finland, Romania and other countries have recently observed the transverse wobbling bands at the […]
One of the major challenges in particle physics is how to interpret large data sets that consist of many different observables in the context of models with different parameters. Click to rate this post! [Total: […]
Theoretical physicists routinely introduce fictitious particles and fields in their calculations, in view of completing a theory or simply to make it more elegant. A striking example concerns the magnetic monopole imagined by Dirac in 1931: a […]
Computers, smartphones, GPS: quantum physics has enabled many technological advances. It is now opening up new fields of research in cryptography (the art of coding messages) with the aim of developing ultra-secure telecommunications networks. There […]
Quantum computing continues to advance at a rapid pace, but one challenge that holds the field back is mitigating the noise that plagues quantum machines. This leads to much higher error rates compared to classical […]
Whether it’s photovoltaics or fusion, sooner or later, human civilization must turn to renewable energies. This is deemed inevitable, considering the ever-growing energy demands of humanity and the finite nature of fossil fuels. Much research […]
