The quantum Hall effect (QHE) stands as a significant milestone in condensed matter physics, paving the way for advancements in topological physics. Extending QHE into three dimensions, however, presents substantial challenges. The primary difficulty lies in the extension of Landau levels into bands along the magnetic field direction, preventing the formation of bulk gaps. A recent approac

Tachyons are hypothetical particles that exceed the speed of light. Often considered the "enfant terrible" of modern physics, these superluminal particles were previously thought to be incompatible with the special theory of relativity. However, a recent paper in Physical Review D by physicists from the University of Warsaw and the University of Oxford reveals that such assumptions were unfounde

The potential for hydrogen-powered flights opens up significant opportunities for fossil-free travel, with rapid technological advancements propelling this vision forward. Recent research from Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden indicates that nearly all air travel within a 750-mile (1200 km) radius could be serviced by hydrogen-powered aircraft by 2045. Moreover, a new heat exchanger un

A group of scientists has published a significant report on glacial geoengineering-an emerging field exploring whether technology could halt the melting of glaciers and ice sheets due to climate change. This white paper marks the first public effort by glaciologists to evaluate potential technological interventions that might address catastrophic sea-level rise scenarios. Although it

NASA's involvement with fuel cell technology began in the 1960s, a time when fossil fuels dominated energy production. Fuel cells create electricity and heat through the combination of hydrogen and oxygen via an electrolyte, producing only water as a by-product, making them an environmentally friendly power source. NASA's interest in fuel cells arose from the need to power Moon missions. E
