Tinder is losing some momentum and Gen Z could be why
The biggest dating app in the world is losing some ground, at least partially due to the habits of young folks.That’s one of the main conclusions to be drawn from a Friday Financial Times report. The British economic newspaper reported that Tin.....»»
How semiconductor defects could boost quantum technology
In diamonds (and other semiconducting materials), defects are a quantum sensor's best friend. That's because defects, essentially a jostled arrangement of atoms, sometimes contain electrons with an angular momentum, or spin, that can store and proces.....»»
Evidence that atomically thin hafnium telluride is an excitonic insulator
The condensation of excitons with non-zero momentum can give rise to so-called charge density waves (CDW). This phenomenon can prompt the transition of materials into a fascinating new quantum phase, known as an excitonic insulator......»»

Astrophysicist proposes a new theory of gravity without a conservation law
The general theory of relativity is based on the concept of curved space–time. To describe how the energy and momentum of fields are distributed in space–time, as well as how they interact with the gravitational field, a special mathematical cons.....»»
New technique uses optical orbital angular momentum lattice to enhance information storage capacity
In the realm of optical holography, the conventional limitations of polarization, wavelength, and incident angle are giving way to a new era of possibilities. A breakthrough technique known as optical orbital angular momentum (OAM) multiplexing has e.....»»
We are losing tetrapod species at a faster rate than we are rediscovering them, researchers say
Lost species are those that have not been observed in the wild for over 10 years, despite searches to find them. Lost tetrapod species (four-limbed vertebrate animals including amphibians, birds, mammals and reptiles) are a global phenomenon—there.....»»
Scientists open door to achieving high-precision "slippery structural hydrogel"
