A POSTECH research team led by Professors Gil-Ho Lee and Gil Young Cho (Department of Physics) has developed a platform that can control the properties of solid materials with light and measure them. Recognized for developing a platform to control and measure the properties of materials in various ways with light,...

The Indian rocket that carried the country’s first Geo Imaging Satellite (GISAT-1) failed in its mission, owing to damage in the soft seal in a critical valve which resulted in lower pressure in the rocket’s liquid hydrogen (LH2) tank, the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) said on Friday. According to ISRO’s...

For most of us, quantum computing, next-generation quantum sensing and quantum networking still belong to the future. But many early-career scientists and students are already preparing for that future. Physicist Reina Maruyama, who studies neutrinos and dark matter at Yale University, says she has seen a flood of students and postdocs...

Look at all the surrounding stuff. Unless you’re in the middle of the desert or somewhere else far from civilization, nearly everything you see traveled to you by sea. “Ships bring 80–90% of most everything you want or need, or the raw materials used for making those things,” says Natasha Brown,...

Maybell Quantum unveiled the Icebox, a cryogenic platform to power the next generation of quantum computers. Maybell’s condenses a room-sized cryogenic setup into a system slightly larger than a kitchen fridge, cooling quantum devices to just a few thousandths of a degree above absolute zero. Maybell’s Icebox solves several pressing challenges...

Physicists from JILA (formerly known as the Joint Institute for Laboratory Astrophysics, a physical science research institute at the University of Colorado Boulder campus and jointly operated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology [NIST] and the University of Colorado Boulder) have measured Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity...
