How Magnetic Fields Control Galactic Growth
Our galaxy’s enormous scaffolding is shaped by complex magnetic fields. Read more in Scientific American…
Deciphering Single-Molecule Fluorescence
Spatial maps of the light emitted by an excited molecule reveal how the emission depends on the molecule’s charge states. Continue reading
Universal Quantum Logic through Spin Swapping
Researchers have demonstrated quantum gate operations in a system where voltage pulses cause neighboring electron spins to swap with one another. Continue reading
How Microswimmers Push Through Solid-Like Fluids
If a helical bacteria’s tail propulsion is strong enough to deform the yield-stress fluid ahead of the swimmer, locomotion proceeds. Continue reading
High-Resolution Wind Detection
A phase-modulated lidar system can measure the speed of distant winds at submeter scales, potentially allowing detailed maps of turbulent flows. Continue reading
A New Route to Room-Temperature Ferromagnets
A novel crystalline material is readily grown from low-melting-temperature mixtures—a result that points toward a new route to above-room-temperature ferromagnets. Continue reading
The Noisy World of EMI Filters
Ohmite provides a full complement of resistor construction components and can provide a range of EMI filters to accommodate these and many other unique applications. Read more at Ohmite Co…
New compound that withstands extreme heat and electricity could lead to next-generation energy storage devices
Flexible polymers made with a new generation of the Nobel-winning “click chemistry” reaction find use in capacitors and other applications. Continue reading
