While quantum mechanics explains the small-scale, low-energy behavior of electrons, relativity becomes important when those same electrons move fast enough for strange effects like spin-orbit coupling ...

"God does not play dice." This famous remark by Albert Einstein critiqued the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics.

For the first time, spin waves, also known as magnons, have been directly observed at the nanoscale. This breakthrough was ...

Multifrequency electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) methodologies combined with density functional theory (DFT) modeling are used to monitor the local structure of cupric ions doped into a porous ...

A new discovery reveals how a mysterious quantum spin excitation — a solitary spinon — can exist alone, hinting at advances ...

This leads to exotic quantum phenomena, such as spin liquids and spin-Peierls transitions. Therefore, constructing S = 1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model systems with π electron magnets presents a ...

Melinda Duterte's Jay Som project gets a lift from Paramore's Hayley Williams and Jimmy Eat World's Jim Adkins on Belong, her first new album in six years.

Just 100 years ago, on 9 July 1925, Werner Heisenberg wrote a letter to his friend, colleague and fiercest critic, Wolfgang Pauli. A few weeks earlier, Heisenberg had returned from the North Sea ...

Researchers from the Faculty of Physics at the University of Warsaw and the University of British Columbia have described how a so-called lone spinon—an exotic quantum excitation that is a single ...

In the design process of high-spin projectile (HSP) shooting, it is necessary to obtain the accurate projectile initial velocity (PIV) with initial disturbances, for the subsequent external ballistics ...
