Researchers Design Compact High-Power Laser Using Plasma Optics

Experimental Physics, Physics, Science /

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) researchers have developed a compact multi-petawatt laser that uses plasma transmission gratings to overcome the power restrictions of traditional solid-state optical gratings. The design might allow the construction of an ultrafast laser up to 1,000 times more potent than existing lasers of the same dimension. Petawatt (quadrillion-watt) lasers rely on […]

Scientist Says That Dark Matter May Be Information Itself

Physics, Quantum Physics, Science /

Info Dump There is no shortage of debate regarding the nature of the dark matter, a mysterious substance that many physicists believe makes up a large proportion of the total mass of the universe, despite never having observed it directly. Currently, a physicist from the UK called Melvin Vopson is raising a startling possibility: that

A Particle New To Physics Could Solve the Dark Matter Mystery

Physics, Quantum Physics, Science /

A team of scientists in Hungary currently published a paper that hints at the presence of a previously unknown subatomic particle. The group first reported finding traces of the particle in 2016, and they now report more traces in a different experiment. If the outcomes are confirmed, the so-called X17 particle could help to explain

Physicists Confirm the Existence Of Two-Dimensional Particles Called ‘Anyons’

Physics, Quantum Physics, Science /

After decades of exploration in nature’s most minor domains, physicists have finally found proof that anyons exist. 1st predicted by theorists in the early 1980s, these particle-like objects arise in realms confined to two dimensions and then under certain circumstances– like at temperatures near absolute zero and in the existence of a solid magnetic field.

Did the scientists at CERN discover proof of completely novel physics?

Condensed Matter, Experimental Physics, Physics, Science /

After running for a decade, there were high expectations that the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the colossal accelerator at CERN, would uncover new particles that could aid in the understanding of the most profound mysteries in physics. Possibilities such as dark matter, miniature black holes, and concealed dimensions were considered. Despite the discovery of the

A novel form of matter known as “superionic” ice that is extremely hot has been discovered.

Condensed Matter, Experimental Physics, Physics, Science /

By subjecting a droplet of water to extreme temperatures similar to those found in stars, using a powerful laser, and squeezing it between two diamonds, was found water on another stage named, superionic. The “weird black” water abides under equal pressures and temperature levels as those at the center of Earth. This discovery could potentially

Scientists Develop Small Lens for Trapping Atoms

Experimental Physics, Physics, Quantum Physics, Science /

Atoms are notoriously tough to regulate. They move in a zigzag pattern similar to fireflies, can escape from the most durable containers, and even exhibit random movements at temperatures close to absolute zero. For quantum tools like atomic clocks or quantum computers to function properly, researchers must be able to capture and manipulate individual atoms.
