Physicists Directly Observe Many-Body Localization in System of 10 Interacting Ions

Nature doesn’t have the best memory. If you fill a box with air and divide it in half with a barrier, it’s easy to tell molecules on the left from molecules on the right. But after removing the barrier and waiting a short while, the molecules get mixed together, and it becomes impossible to tell where a given molecule started. The air-in-a-box system loses any memory of its initial conditions.

Study Shows More Number of Heavier Elements Exist in Gaseous Halos Outside of Galaxies

Galaxies "waste" large amounts of heavy elements generated by star formation by ejecting them up to a million light years away into their surrounding halos and deep space, according to a new study led by the University of Colorado Boulder.

Scientists Predict Skyrmions can be Realized for Application at Room Temperature

Magnetic vortices – so-called skyrmions – were predicted theoretically more than 25 years ago, but it has only been possible to observe them experimentally in magnetic materials in recent years.

Researchers Show How a Single Atom can Bind Many Bosons Around it

Nobody is perfect, but sometimes it is the defect that makes the difference. For example, the electric properties of semiconductors undergo significant changes by the slightest variation in the dopant concentration, and though a perfect diamond is without any colour, atomic impurities make them shine in pale blue, violet or pink which even enhances their value.

Scientists Develop Promising Technology for Accelerating Particles to High Energies in Short Distances

A team led by scientists from the University of California, Los Angeles and the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory has reached another milestone in developing a promising technology for accelerating particles to high energies in short distances: They created a tiny tube of hot, ionized gas, or plasma, in which the particles remain tightly focused as they fly through it.
