Kai Sun of the University of Michigan is a humble physics professor with ambitious goals. “I’m mainly a paper-and-pencil type of theorist, doing analytical calculations mostly,” Sun said. “My interests are pretty broad, but basically searching...
A giant anomalous Hall effect (AHE) has been observed in a nonmagnetic material for the first time, as reported by researchers from Japan. This surprising result was achieved using high-quality Cd3As2 thin films, a Dirac semimetal, under an in-plane magnetic field. By...
In a first-of-its-kind experiment, engineers at the University of Pennsylvania brought quantum networking out of the lab and onto commercial fiber-optic cables using the same Internet Protocol (IP) that powers today’s web. Go to Source
In everyday life, all matter exists as either a gas, liquid, or solid. In quantum mechanics, however, it is possible for two distinct states to exist simultaneously. An ultracold quantum system, for instance, can exhibit the properties of both a fluid and a solid at...
Quantum researchers have deployed a new algorithm to manage noise in qubits in real time. The method can be applied to a wide range of different qubits, even in large numbers. Go to Source
