This image shows the ultracold atomic quantum simulator. The red and blue balls represent the fermionic atoms with up and down spins respectively, arranged in a stacked pattern in 3D space, forming the antiferromagnetic crystal. The glass cell provides the ultrahigh vacuum environment for the ultracold atoms. Credit: Chen Lei In a study published in … Read more

Researchers from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have successfully developed a groundbreaking method for 3D reconstruction. This new technique makes it possible to create accurate 3D models of objects with just two camera perspectives. This is a feat previously thought impossible without hundreds of images or controlled laboratory conditions. This breakthrough has the potential … Read more

To create nHz frequency signals, the vacuum junctions must be supercooled. These slow transitions are difficult to complete due to the cosmic expansion of the universe. Even when the transition is complete, the wave frequencies can shift away from nHz. Although nanohertz gravitational waves are cool, their origin is probably not supercooled.
