Elusive particle discovered in a material through tabletop experiment
Boston MA (SPX) Jun 10, 2022
An interdisciplinary team led by Boston College physicists has discovered a new particle - or previously undetectable quantum excitation - known as the axial Higgs mode, a magnetic relative of the mass-defining Higgs Boson particle, the team reports in the online edition of the journal Nature.
The detection a decade ago of the long-sought Higgs Boson became central to the understanding of

Emulator reveals the intricacies of light behavior in complex evolving systems
Orlando FL (SPX) Jun 10, 2022
University of Central Florida researchers are part of a team who have revealed, for the first time, the intricacies of how light behaves in advanced dynamical optical systems with configurations known as non-Hermitian arrangements.
In non-Hermitian systems, allowed energy values create self-intersecting surfaces with a unique topology and branch points, which are known as exceptional point

You can hear every event twice in a three-dimensional quantum gas
Cambridge UK (SPX) Jun 10, 2022
If you could immerse yourself in a quantum fluid, you would hear every event twice, because they support two sound waves with different speeds.
The researchers in their experiment have realized this remarkable property for the first time in a three-dimensional quantum gas, instead of a quantum liquid. They achieved this result through cooling a gas of potassium atoms trapped by laser beams

Study reveals how some high-energy particle 'jets' lose energy
Upton NY (SPX) Jun 10, 2022
Scientists studying particle collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) have revealed how certain particle-jets lose energy as they traverse the unique form of nuclear matter created in these collisions. The results, published in Physical Review C, should help them learn about key "transport properties" of this hot particle soup, known as a quark-gluon plasma (QGP).

Amsterdam physicists build an atom laser that can stay on forever
Amsterdam, Netherlands (SPX) Jun 10, 2022
Imagining our everyday life without lasers is difficult. We use lasers in printers, CD players, pointers, measuring devices, and so on. What makes lasers so special is that they use coherent waves of light: all the light inside a laser vibrates completely in sync.
Meanwhile, quantum mechanics tells us that particles like atoms should also be thought of as waves. As a result, we can build '

Air-breathing hypersonic weapon delivers value and performance
Los Angeles CA (SPX) Jun 14, 2022
Two core technologies are at the heart of the U.S. pursuit of hypersonic weapons, or those that travel Mach 5 or faster: scramjets, which derive propulsion from the air around them, and boost-glide systems, which use a rocket motor to reach the edge of space and then descend to their target.
Raytheon Missiles and Defense, a Raytheon Technologies business, is making significant investments

FAA requires SpaceX to make environmental changes to Starbase in Texas
Washington DC (UPI) Jun 13, 2021
The Federal Aviation Administration on Monday said SpaceX will be required to make more than 75 changes to the orbital launch program at its Starbase launch site in Texas after determining there would be some environmental impacts to the surrounding area.
Elon Musk's SpaceX must obtain either an experimental permit or a vehicle operator license from the FAA for Starship and Super Heavy

Supermoon delights skygazers around the globe
From Frankfurt and New York to Istanbul and Beijing, skygazers could enjoy a beautiful supermoon rise over the horizon in an impressive astronomic spectacle.
The full moon appeared bigger than normal and sometimes slightly orange-colored as it lit skies around the globe.
It reached its full stage on Tuesday during a phenomenon known as a supermoon because of its proximity to Earth. It's also referred to as the "Strawberry Moon" because it's the full moon at strawberry harvest time.
In Frankfurt, it rose behind the German city's banking district's skyline, while in Beijing the forbidden city's roof decorations depicting sacred beasts were silhouetted in sharp black by the moon.
The moon also illuminated New York City's Statue of Liberty and shone on the pillars of the ancient temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion south of Athens, Greece.
