Supersymmetry (SUSY) is a theory in particle physics that introduces the concept of superpartners for all known particles. One of the most prominent examples of this theory is the existence of the “stop” particle, which is the superpartner of the top quark in the Standard Model. In 2021, the CMS collaboration conducted an analysis of

The field of laser technology has always been at the forefront of cutting-edge advancements in various scientific disciplines. However, with traditional Titanium-sapphire (Ti:sapphire) lasers being bulky, expensive, and requiring additional high-powered lasers to function, their widespread adoption has been limited. This limitation has hindered their potential impact in fields such as quantum optics, spectroscopy, and

In a groundbreaking study published in Nature Communications, a team of scientists from Rice University have uncovered the potential for flat electronic bands at the Fermi level to revolutionize the field of quantum computing and electronic devices. Led by Qimiao Si, the team’s findings shed light on the unique properties of quantum materials governed by

For the past several decades, scientists have been intrigued by the idea of “kugelblitze,” black holes formed from incredibly high concentrations of light. This unique concept has been linked to various astronomical phenomena, including dark matter, and has even been proposed as a potential energy source for futuristic spaceship engines. However, recent research conducted by

The collaboration between Professor Szameit’s research group at the University of Rostock and researchers from the Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg has led to a groundbreaking discovery in the field of optical chips. Their research, which focuses on stabilizing the interference of two photons using the concept of topologically protected wave propagation, has been published in the prestigious

The study published in Physical Review Letters (PRL) delves into the realm of quadratic electron-phonon coupling and its potential to elevate superconductivity by forming quantum bipolarons. This electron-phonon coupling involves the interaction between electrons and lattice vibrations, known as phonons, which play a crucial role in enabling superconductivity in certain materials. By facilitating the formation

Light backscattering in photonic alloys has been a major obstacle in the development of structures that control the propagation of electromagnetic waves. While these materials hold great potential, the reflection of light back in the direction of origin has limited their efficiency as waveguides. Researchers have been exploring various methods to reduce or prevent light

A recent study conducted by researchers at the University of Tsukuba has shed new light on the phenomenon of electron spin fluctuations in magnetic materials. These fluctuations have been found to trigger a large anomalous Hall effect during a phase transition referred to as the devil’s staircase magnetic transition. This discovery is crucial for the

In a groundbreaking study conducted by scientists at the University of Nottingham’s School of Physics, a specially designed 3D printed vacuum system has been developed to trap dark matter. The primary goal of this experiment is to detect domain walls, a crucial step in unlocking some of the universe’s deepest mysteries. Dark matter and dark

Halide perovskites have gained attention as promising materials for applications in photovoltaics, light-emitting diodes, and other optoelectronic devices due to their unique properties. Recent research conducted at the University of Texas at Austin sought to uncover the origin of the remarkable carrier lifetimes observed in these materials.
