WashU physicists build quantum sensors in boron nitride sheets to study magnetism and stress under extreme pressure.

The world of quantum physics is already mysterious, but what happens when that strange realm of subatomic particles is put ...

THOR AI tackles the curse of dimensionality by breaking down the giant data cube into smaller, linked components. It’s like reorganizing Lego into neat chains. When paired with a custom interpolation ...

For nearly two centuries, scientists believed that ice becomes slippery because pressure or friction melts its surface. New research from Saarland University overturns this idea. For more than a ...

Quantum sensors built in nanometer thin boron nitride sheets endure extreme pressure, enabling precise measurements of stress ...

The Laboratory for Integrated Science and Engineering, located at 11 Oxford Street, houses experimental physics labs. A team of Harvard and Boston University physicists developed a new tool to measure ...

Researchers in Germany have discovered that slipping on ice is caused by dipole interactions, not friction or temperature.

Pressure is one of the canonical thermodynamic variables which control the equilibrium conditions of a physical system and, as such, it has been used for centuries as a control parameter to drive a ...
