Using observations from multiple powerful telescopes, a team of astronomers studied a red quasar nicknamed “the Hatchling” at redshift 3.7. They may have identified one of the clearest examples yet of a quasar caught in transition between a heavily...
Chiral phonons are groups of atoms that move in a circular direction when excited by an energy source, such as heat. As the phonons move through a material, they propagate that circular motion, or angular momentum, through the material. The angular momentum serves as...
