You scrambled up a Rubik's cube, and now you want to put it back in order. What sequence of moves should you make?
Chirality鈥攖he property of an object that is distinct from its mirror image鈥攈as long captivated scientists across biology, chemistry, and physics. The phenomenon is sometimes called "handedness," because it refers to an ...
Altermagnets, which exhibit momentum-dependent spin splitting without spin鈥搊rbit coupling (SOC) or net magnetization, have recently attracted significant international attention.
Catenanes are organic compounds with ring-like molecules that are mechanically interlocked. The mechanical locking system in such molecules is so robust that they can only be disentangled via covalent bond cleavage. A recent ...
Traditionally, magnetic materials have been divided into two main categories: ferromagnets and antiferromagnets. Over the past few years, however, physicists have uncovered the existence of altermagnets, a new type of magnetic ...
A research team from the Institute of Statistical Mathematics and Panasonic Holdings Corporation has developed a machine learning algorithm, ShotgunCSP, that enables fast and accurate prediction of crystal structures from ...
Recent studies have revealed that electrons passing through chiral molecules exhibit significant spin polarization鈥攁 phenomenon known as chirality-induced spin selectivity. This effect stems from a nontrivial coupling between ...
Recently, a research team found a way to design a class of homochiral organometallic nanosheets that exhibit room-temperature multiferroic and topological nodes. Their study is published in Nano Letters.
The Standard Model (SM), the main physics framework describing elementary particles and the forces driving them, outlines key patterns in physical interactions referred to as gauge symmetries. One of the symmetries it describes ...
A research team has discovered that achiral hard banana-shaped particles can spontaneously form exotic structures like skyrmions and blue phase III phases. Skyrmions are tiny vortex-like structures found in various condensed-matter ...
