Signatures of Supersymmetry in the ν = 5 / 2 Fractional Quantum Hall Effect

There is a property of a quantum state called “magic.” As shown by the Gottesman-Knill theorem, so-called stabilizer states, which are composed of only Clifford gates, can be efficiently computed on a classical computer…

First Constraints from DAMIC-M on Sub-GeV Dark-Matter Particles Interacting with Electrons

Scientists have discovered a new class of defects in diamond that may be of use for quantum information processing and precise and remote temperature measurements within very small objects…

Why Wetting a Surface Can Increase Friction

In 1992, physicists proposed water could transition between high- and low-density liquid forms when it is supercooled—quickly chilled to a temperature below which it would normally freeze

Simulations indicate magnetic-field instabilities can induce radio-wave hot spots that orbit the black hole, a proposition that future Event Horizon Telescope measurements could test
