Topological materials have been a topic of interest in the scientific community due to their unique properties that arise from the knotted or twisted nature of their wavefunctions. These materials exhibit edge states at the boundaries, where the wavefunction must unwind, resulting in different behavior of electrons at the edge compared to the bulk. When

This research not only paves the way for the development of quantum technologies but also holds the potential for uncovering new states of matter. Published in
The concept of antimatter is relatively new, starting with British physicist Paul Dirac’s theory in 1928. He predicted the existence of antielectrons, or particles with opposite charges to electrons. Since then, scientists have discovered antimatter equivalents for all fundamental particles. However, this discovery has raised questions about the scarcity of antimatter in the universe compared
