MIT scientists have found that two previously separate fields in condensed matter physics can be combined to yield new, exotic phenomena.

MIT physicists have discovered a resonance in colliding ultracold molecules. The findings shed light on the forces that drive molecules to chemically react and suggest scientists could one day harness particles’ natural resonances to steer and control certain reactions.

MIT physicists found a way to switch superconductivity on and off in magic-angle graphene. The discovery could lead to ultrafast superconducting transistors for “neuromorphic” electronics that operate similarly to the rapid on/off firing of neurons in the human brain.

MIT physicists have developed a protocol to verify the accuracy of quantum experiments.

An MIT study finds that, for now, the catalog of known black hole binaries does not reveal anything fundamental about how black holes form. More data will be needed to determine whether the invisible giants arose from a quiet galactic disk or a more dynamic cluster of stars.
