Do the fastest-spinning pulsars contain quark matter?
Neutron stars are so named because in the simplest of models they are made of neutrons. They form when the core of a large star collapses, and the weight of gravity causes atoms to collapse. Electrons are squeezed together with protons so that the co.....»»
Physicists uncover strong light-matter interactions in quantum spin liquids
Physicists have long theorized the existence of a unique state of matter known as a quantum spin liquid. In this state, magnetic particles do not settle into an orderly pattern, even at absolute zero temperature. Instead, they remain in a constantly.....»»
New model find molecular interactions key to creating order in active systems
Non-reciprocal interactions can increase the order in an active system. This is the finding of a study by scientists from the department of Living Matter Physics at the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization (MPI-DS)......»»

Advanced atom interferometer could help with "the embarrassing problem" of dark matter
Assuming dark matter exists, its interactions with ordinary matter are so subtle that even the most sensitive instruments cannot detect them. In a new study, Northwestern University physicists now introduce a highly sensitive new tool, which amplifie.....»»

NASA says Orion’s heat shield is good to go for Artemis II—but does it matter?
The Artemis II mission, as NASA currently envisions it, won't launch until April 2026. Two years ago next week, NASA's Orion spacecraft splashed down in the Pacific Ocean to wrap.....»»
Getting a grip on quark mixing: Physicists introduce framework to determine amount of mixing between up and down quarks
The quarks that make up the nuclei of all atoms around us are known to "mix": the different types of quark occasionally change into one another. The amounts in which these processes happen are not very well known, though—and the theoretical values.....»»
