Atomic Clocks Can Now Tick Faster and Slower at the Same Time

OIST PhD student Aditya Singh generates and observes surface waves that act as a classical analogue to quantum effects.

Swirling Vortex in Water Tank Reveals Hidden Geometry of Quantum World

Researchers developed a model that finds structural patterns in images of magnetic regions, including irregular, maze-like shapes that older methods miss. By adding an entropy term to a classic physics equation, the model maps out an energy landscape that shows exactly what it costs, energetically, for a magnet to reverse its direction at different temperatures. The result is a clearer picture of the barriers a magnet must cross before it flips, and why temperature changes that process.

The strong stellar wind from the supergiant star pushes the jets launched by the black hole away from the star. This causes the jet direction to vary as the black hole and the supergiant star move around their orbit.

Black Hole That Dances in the Wind Finally Tells Us How Powerful Its Jets Really Are

Why Perfect AI Alignment Is Mathematically Impossible, and Why That Might Be Fine

Superconductors could lead to many advances, from faster train systems to more efficient energy-storage devices.

New Method Dials Up Superconductivity

This artist's illustration shows the cosmic distance ladder — a series of overlapping methods astronomers use to measure distances across the universe.

Astronomers Just Found 33,000 Hydrogen Halos the Early Universe Was Hiding

When metals are placed in magnetic fields, their electrons orbit at speeds and in shapes related to the metal's atomic lattice. MIT researchers have discovered “moiré crystals” with two different competing atomic lattices, which together generate a moiré superlattice that is mathematically equivalent to an emergent 4D “superspace” lattice. Researchers have now discovered that some of the electronic properties of moiré crystals simulate those of previously hypothesized 4D quantum materials.
