The world of physics has been shaken by a recent discovery made by Professor Sheng Zhigao and his research team at the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. They have successfully observed the strong nonlinear magnetic second harmonic generation (MSHG) induced by ferromagnetic order in monolayer CrPS4, a two-dimensional van
As Rohit Velankar, a senior at Fox Chapel Area High School, poured juice into a glass, he began to notice the rhythmic sound of “glug, glug, glug” flexing the walls of the carton. This seemingly insignificant moment sparked his curiosity about how a container’s elasticity could potentially affect the way fluids are drained. Initially, this
In a groundbreaking collaboration between research teams from the Charles University of Prague, the CFM (CSIC-UPV/EHU) center in San Sebastian, and CIC nanoGUNE’s Nanodevices group, a cutting-edge material with revolutionary properties in spintronics has been developed. This innovative material, presented in a recent publication in the prestigious journal Nature Materials, heralds a new era in
Scientists working on the Short-Baseline Near Detector (SBND) at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory have recently made a groundbreaking discovery – the detection of the detector’s first neutrino interactions. This achievement marks a significant milestone in the field of particle physics, as the SBND collaboration has been tirelessly working on planning, prototyping, and constructing the detector
Chained Together, the co-op game that involves escaping hell, has recently introduced a map editor feature. This new addition allows players to create their own challenging obstacle courses for their fellow players to navigate through. With the ability to place moving platforms, swinging axes, pulsating spikes, and other nightmarish elements, the possibilities for creating diabolical
The groundbreaking algorithm developed by Prakash Vedula, Ph.D., a distinguished professor at the University of Oklahoma School of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering, has made its mark on the world of quantum computing. Known as the Shukla-Vedula algorithm, it has been integrated into advanced computing software by tech giants Google and IBM. This algorithm stands out
Recently, Taylor Swift took to Instagram to announce her endorsement for Vice President Kamala Harris in the upcoming presidential election. She cited the circulation of AI-generated images of herself endorsing Donald Trump as one of the factors that prompted her to make her support public. Swift expressed her concerns about the dangers of spreading misinformation
Australia recently announced plans to establish a minimum age limit for children to access social media platforms. The decision stems from concerns regarding the negative impact social media has on the mental and physical health of young users. While the government aims to promote real-life experiences and human interactions among children, this move has drawn
Non-Hermitian systems have gained significant attention in the scientific community due to their unique properties that go beyond those of Hermitian systems. In a recent study published in Physical Review Letters, researchers have successfully observed the non-Hermitian edge burst in quantum dynamics, shedding light on the behavior of systems characterized by dissipation and gain-and-loss mechanisms.
The former CEO of British chip design firm Arm, Warren East, recently highlighted the challenges facing the U.K. in commercializing technology businesses on a global scale. According to East, there is a pressing need for a mindset shift within the investor community to help the country succeed on the world stage. He noted that lackluster
