First Trace of Differences Between Baryons and Antibaryons Encountered in LHCb Experiment

The world around us is mainly constructed of baryons, particles composed of three quarks. Why are there no antibaryons, since just after the Big Bang, matter and antimatter came into being in exactly the same amounts?

Researchers Study Emergence of Quantum Effects and Destruction of Chaos

Weather forecasters have a notoriously difficult job as small changes that take place in temperature or air pressure, which eventually drives weather systems and winds, can have major consequences on a global level. This sensitivity to small changes is commonly known as the butterfly effect, which creates difficulty and chaos in predicting weather patterns.

Researchers Explain How Rare Isotopes Shed Light on the Evolution of Visible Matter in Universe

Imagine being able to view microscopic aspects of a classical nova, a massive stellar explosion on the surface of a white dwarf star (about as big as Earth), in a laboratory rather than from afar via a telescope.

Researchers Examine Ultrafast Laser-Excited Magnetization Dynamics of LSMO Thin Films with BFO Coating Layers

Ultrafast non-equilibrium magnetization in correlated spin systems is extensively studied in recent years. At both fundamental and application levels, ultrafast laser pulse excitation and dynamics measurement provide an effective path to the fast optical detection, as well as for the control of the magnetic order.
