A new study reveals that two widely studied ultrathin superconducting materials are more sophisticated than they appear. Although they seem to behave like simple superconductors with a single energy gap, they actually contain two strongly interacting superconducting states that work together and...
Rumors abound that the Kentucky Wildcats could have a target in mind for their final roster spot if a recent lawsuit is successful.
Driving an electric current through a molecule can create a magnetic field. Yet in practice, such fields are often too weak to be detected experimentally. Through theoretical modeling, researchers at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) show how quantum effects can turn single...
A new study by Caroline Ganglo and Stefan Karlowsky from the Leibniz Institute for Horticultural Sciences (IGZ) investigated whether human excreta-derived fertilizers are suitable for replacing mineral fertilizer in kohlrabi production and how they affect plant N uptake and soil N fluxes. The re...
Typically, astronomers identify comets by their distinct atmospheres, or comae, and their tails, which are created as the sun vaporizes a comet's ice. These features emit a glow when sunlight bounces off dust and water droplets. As gas escapes the body of the comet, it also acts as a tiny thrus...
Shares of BlackRock were rallying toward their best day in more than a year on Wednesday, after strong inflows into exchange-traded funds and buoyant markets helped the world’s biggest asset manager beat Wall Street’s earnings expectations for the latest quarter.
