Almost 20 years after researchers first predicted electron quadruplets, evidence of their existence has been shown to occur in experimental setups, representing a brand new state of matter that opens up a whole new field of possibilities in physics
Cornell researchers have discovered a rare "pseudogap" phenomenon that helps explain how the superconducting transition temperature can be greatly...

Date Time Quantum Experiment in Science Raises Questions Jülich, 27 May 2021 – Quantum systems are considered extremely fragile. Even the smallest interactions with the environment can result in the loss of sensitive quantum effects. In the renowned journal Science, however, researchers from TU Delft, RWTH Aachen University and Forschungszentrum Jülich now present an experiment in which a quantum system consisting of two coupled atoms behaves surprisingly stable under electron bombardment. The experiment provide an indication that special quantum states might be realised in a quantum comp...
Date Time Building a Better Bulb Being more efficient, traditional LED lightbulbs require much less electricity to operate. But they are not problem free. University of Houston Professor Jakoah Brgoch watches graduate research assistant Shruti Hariyani adjust a phosphor sample for the lab’s radio frequency furnace. LED lightbulbs offer considerable advantages over other types of lighting. Being more efficient, they require much less electricity to operate. They do not give off unwanted heat the way old-school incandescent bulbs do, and the best of them long outlast even fluorescent lightbul...
