First-Ever Observation of Mini-Tornadoes in Supersolid Quantum Gas In a breakthrough, scientists confirmed superfluid properties in supersolids by observing quantized vortices. Using precision ...

Physicists have made a breakthrough in the development of a nuclear clock, a new kind of ultraprecise clock that could ...

The Big 12 Conference named University of Houston physics professor and world-renowned researcher Zhifeng Ren as one of its ...

Supersolids are a new form of quantum matter that has only recently been demonstrated. The state of matter can be produced artificially in ultracold, dipolar quantum gases. A team has now demonstrated ...

Fine tuning an experimental setup improved a detector's sensitivity to neutrinos and perhaps eventually dark matter—two ...

New observations of microscopic vortices confirm the existence of a paradoxical phase of matter that may also arise inside ...

Electrons typically travel at high speeds, zipping through matter unbound. In the 1930s, physicist Eugene Wigner predicted that electrons could be coaxed into stillness at low densities and cold ...

(b) the minimum wavelength of X-rays produced by 30 kV electrons. 2. The photoelectric cut-off voltage in a certain experiment is 1.5 V. What is the maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons ...

Astronomers have found what could be described as the universe's hungriest black hole – one that's breaking fundamental ...

With advancements in imaging technology, the first successful dark matter detector might turn out to be an ancient rock. The visible universe — every potato, gas giant, steamy romance novel, black ...
