…transport current loss-free if biased in a quantum-Hall plateau. Loss-free currents have furthermore been found to flow along the edges of topological insulators. In all systems described, dissipation-free transport is…

…more accurate galaxy properties and 2) problems with model simplicity or inflexibility can be mitigated by considering more complex models alongside thoughtful priors to avoid degeneracies between model parameters. Bio:…

…physicists refer to it as “setting independence,” or more provocatively, “free will.” This loophole proposes that a particle detector’s settings may “conspire” with events in the shared causal past of…

…laser’s individual photons, in the form of quantum fluctuations, also known in physics as “shot noise.” For instance, the number of photons in a laser that arrive at a detector…

…however, there is a bit of randomness among a laser’s individual photons, in the form of quantum fluctuations, also known in physics as “shot noise.” For instance, the number of…

…theory hints at the existence of a smallest possible length, the Planck length. Number theory provides an alternative to the real numbers known as the p-adic numbers. Recent work has…

At the end of June, after more than 6+ months of testing at NE83, the TESS flight delivery cameras were delivered to Lincoln Lab, who then sent them to Orbital/ATK…

…an infinite number of geometrical measures termed fractals (Mandelbrot, 1977). For example, the fluctuating behavior of the interacting current filaments depicting the solar wind turbulence as shown in the accompanying…

Heavier than the Sun, Smaller than a City: The Neutron Star Dr. Paul Hemphill, 1:30-2:00pm Abstract: Neutron stars are some of the most extreme objects in the known Universe….
