Sonchis of Sais—an ancient Egyptian Priest who introduced Atlantis to the world

Every time we think about Atlantis—the fabled lost city/continent—we think about Plato, the man who described its existence in his work Critias and Timaeus.

But have we ever asked ourselves where does the original story from Atlantis come from?

Plato did not invent Atlantis as many believe, but the story of the existence of […]

The Family Tree of the ancient Anunnaki—those who came down from heaven

The Ancient Anunnaki are often referred to as the immortal gods that lived on Earth during the ancient Sumerian time in Mesopotamia.

According to Mesopotamian mythology, the Anunna or Anunnaki were, initially, the most powerful gods and lived with Anu in heaven.

Later, without having established a clear motive for this change, the Igigi […]

Nonreciprocal interactions go nonlinear: Non-Hermitian dynamics observed in coupled nanoparticles

Using two optically-trapped glass nanoparticles, researchers observed a novel collective Non-Hermitian and non-linear dynamic driven by non-reciprocal interactions. This contribution expands traditional optical levitation with tweezer arrays by incorporating non-conservative interactions.

Escaping kinetic traps: How molecular interactions make it possible to overcome the energy barrier

In a paper in Physical Review Letters scientists from the department Living Matter Physics at the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization (MPI-DS) propose a mechanism on how energy barriers in complex systems can be overcome. These findings can help to engineer molecular machines and to understand the self-organization of active matter.

Exciting the alpha particle: International team validates helium-4 transition calculations

An important part of physics research is examining why theoretical calculations and experimental results sometimes don’t match. A recent experiment in Germany studied the helium-4 nucleus, also known as an alpha particle. Helium-4 consists of only two protons and two neutrons, making it relatively easy to describe using theoretical calculations. This makes it useful for […]

Save your data on printable magnetic devices? New laser technique’s twist might make this reality

The proliferation of all things digital doesn’t mean that printing technology is no longer relevant. In fact, printing technology is required to make the semiconductors necessary for the digital world. And as an Osaka Metropolitan University-led team has shown using a new printing technique, printable magnetic devices for high-density data storage might soon be realized. […]

Optimization algorithm successfully computes the ground state of interacting quantum matter

Over the past decades, computer scientists have developed various computing tools that could help to solve challenges in quantum physics. These include large-scale deep neural networks that can be trained to predict the ground states of quantum systems. This method is now referred to as neural quantum states (NQSs).
