A team of physicists at the University of Cologne has solved a long-standing problem of condensed matter physics: they have directly observed the Kondo effect…
Scientists used ultrafast electron diffraction to image the structure of the pericyclic minimum, the “transition state” of electrocyclic reactions. In chemical reactions, molecules proceed during…
Ultrafast lasers and X-rays have revealed the coupling between electronic and nuclear dynamics in molecules. Nearly a century ago, physicists Max Born and J. Robert…
A recent study, which holds significant implications for addressing one of the most important unresolved questions in physics—the disparity between matter and antimatter in the…
Defects frequently hinder the efficiency of gadgets like light-emitting diodes (LEDs). While we have a clear understanding of how defects lead to charge carrier loss…
An international group of scientists managed to produce slow electrons in a solution. These electrons could potentially enhance the efficiency of certain chemical reactions in…
An international research team has succeeded for the first time in measuring the electron spin in matter — i.e., the curvature of space in which…
Technion researchers present the first-ever observation of the Cherenkov radiation phenomenon in a two-dimensional space. The researchers from the Andrew and Erna Viterbi Faculty of…
An electronic bridge facilitates the fast transfer of energy between semiconductors. Researchers are exploring the potential applications of two-dimensional (2D) materials in transistors and optoelectronics,…
Physicists from the Max Planck Institute have achieved a high-precision measurement of the atomic mass of the electron, 13 times more precise than previously known….
While using X-rays from the Swiss Light Source (SLS) fired at Sr2CuO3, physicists at the Paul Scherrer Institute observed an electron splitting into two new…
