Unifying Platform to Explore Seemingly Dissimilar Phenomena of Time Crystals

Structures called “time crystals,” which repeat in time similar to traditional crystals that repeat in space, have recently gained the attention and imagination of scientists from several disciplines.

Magnon Drag in Paramagnetic Materials Could Boost Thermoelectric Efficiency

An international research team has found that local thermal perturbations of spins in a solid have the ability to transform heat to energy even in a paramagnetic material, where spins were not considered to correlate sufficiently long to do so.

New Technique Uses Organic Molecules to Fabricate Novel Spintronic Devices

Physicists have developed a new technique for the fabrication of unique types of electronic components called spintronic devices. Since the future of such low-power, high-performance devices looks promising, efficient means to develop them are highly in demand.

Scientists Detect the Ringing of a Newborn Black Hole for the First Time

If Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity holds true, then a black hole, born from the cosmically quaking collisions of two massive black holes, should itself “ring” in the aftermath, producing gravitational waves much like a struck bell reverbates sound waves.

Researchers Perform Experiments to Build an Atomic Nuclear Clock

Building the most precise clock in the world requires something that “ticks” extremely fast and extremely accurate. Electrons used in the case of an atomic clock can be switched back and forth between two distinct states in a way that is defined very precisely.
