First Experimental Verification of Distributed Quantum Phase Estimation

Prof. PAN Jianwei and his colleges from University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) have achieved the experimental verification of distribution quantum phase estimation for the first time. This work was published on Nature Photonics.

Distinguishable Skyrmions Produced Within Ultra-Thin Metal Layers at Room Temperature

Many of us may still be familiar with the simple physical principles of magnetism from school. However, this general knowledge about north and south poles quickly becomes very complex when looking at what happens down to the atomic level. The magnetic interactions between atoms at such minute scales can create unique states, such as skyrmions.

Study Reveals How Nearby Galaxies Form Their Stars

Stars are born in dense clouds of molecular hydrogen gas that permeates interstellar space of most galaxies. While the physics of star formation is complex, recent years have seen substantial progress towards understanding how stars form in a galactic environment. What ultimately determines the level of star formation in galaxies, however, remains an open question.

New Technique Helps "Sketch" Patterns of Electrons into Programmable Quantum Material

It has long been a dream to invent new materials from the "top down" choosing which atoms go where to engineer properties of interest.

Research Focuses on Electron-Plasma Interactions

A paper on research conducted by Meirielen Caetano de Sousa, postdoctoral fellow at the University of São Paulo's Physics Institute (IF-USP) in Brazil, is highlighted as Editor's Pick in the September issue of Physics of Plasmas, published by the American Institute of Physics with the cooperation of The American Physical Society.

Quantum Superposition Evidenced by Measuring Interaction of Light with Vibration

An exclusively counterintuitive aspect of quantum mechanics is the fact that a single event can exist in a state of superposition—occurring both here and there, or both today and tomorrow.

Astrophysicists Discover Primordial Clumps of Gas and Stars in the Milky Way

Just as archaeologists dig hoping to find traces of the past, an international group of astrophysicists managed to get into the thick cloud of dust around the centre of the Milky Way (also known as the bulge) discovering primordial clumps of gas and stars never found so far.

Discovery Paves Way for Real Analog Spintronic Devices

The observation of nonlinearity in electron spin-related processes in graphene makes it easier to transport, manipulate and detect spins, as well as spin-to-charge conversion. It also allows analogue operations such as amplitude modulation and spin amplification.

Hard-to-Track Lithium Identified and Measured in the Atmosphere of White Dwarfs

For the first time, hard-to-track lithium has been identified and measured in the atmosphere of burned out stars called white dwarfs, according to a study led by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill published online in the journal Science.

World's First Simulations of Space Plasma Show How Compressive Fluctuations Heat Ions

New simulations carried out in part on the ATERUI II supercomputer in Japan have found that the reason ions exist at higher temperatures than electrons in space plasma is because they are better able to absorb energy from compressive turbulent fluctuations in the plasma.
