Cooperative tunnelling of spins creates magnetic "avalanches" in a crystalline quantum magnet
Swirling vortex in superfluid helium could let researchers study rotating curved space–times in the lab
Anaerobic bacteria depend upon a single family of proteins to transfer extra electrons they produce to electric hairs on their surface
Improvement to quantum gas microscopy gives the position of atoms in all three spatial dimensions, not just two
New technique measures the gravitational pull on a micron-scale levitating magnetic particle
Researchers in Japan and Korea say they have found evidence for the existence of these elusive quasiparticles in the thermodynamic behaviour of a Kitaev magnet
Researchers calculate that large-scale devices would be cheap to produce, too
Spectral analysis of stellar “twins” also suggests a significant fraction of planetary systems may be unstable
Collective topological chiral spin textures could lead to new concepts for spintronics devices
