[en] Superconductivity Scandal: Stunning Science Fraud Report by Nature News Team Once "up-and-coming star of the physics world" when claiming in a Nature paper "to have discovered the first room-temperature superconductor", researcher Dias "is now infamous for the scandal that surrounds his work", Nature news team writes. "The investigation unearths fresh details about how Dias distorted the evidence for room-temperature superconductivity — and indicates that he concealed information from his students, manipulated them and shut them out of key steps in the research process." https://lnkd.in/dzQX8UJr #ResearchHighlights #nature #superconductivity #superconductivityscandal #deception #retraction #misconduct #datafraud #academicmisconduct #fabrication #luh #csh #uor #universityofrochester #unlv #universityofnevada #academia #science #research #physics #dias

An international team of researchers has developed a new theoretical framework that bridges physics and biology to provide a unified approach for understanding how complexity and evolution emerge in nature. https://lnkd.in/d8jiGJZ2

🔍 Dive into our latest interview with Professor Adam Babinski, Vice-Dean of the Faculty of Physics University of Warsaw! 🌐🧲 Among other things, we talked about the Polish Roadmap for Research Infrastructures, dynamic cooperation at both national and international levels, and research into magnetic fields. #ScienceTalks #ResearchInfrastructure #magneticfields ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/d3eUQRHc

What happens if you drive a supercurrent through a quasicrystal? That's what we uncover in our latest research! (https://lnkd.in/dRJSngur) We find fractal oscillations between insulating and metallic behavior, enhanced current at reduced interface transparency, direct correlation between the current and the topological invariant of the quasicrystal, and other curious phenomena. Beyond basic research, this demonstrates that quasicrystals can be useful for novel quantum devices, since they now can be engineered and miniaturized. Very grateful to my collaborators, especially my former student Anna Sandberg who was awarded best MSc student in theoretical physics at Uppsala University for this project!

“For generations, seasoned research scientists have worked with advanced materials characterization instrumentation including superconducting magnets, vibrating sample magnetometers (VSM), and low-level measurement lock-in amplifiers. However, at the Quantum Design Teaching & Materials Discovery Laboratory at California State University San Marcos (CSUSM), undergraduate students have the opportunity to gain firsthand experience with state-of-the-art equipment typically reserved only for graduate students and advanced researchers at most other universities. A Quantum Design Physical Properties Measurement System (PPMS®) VersaLab® is available to students as part of the Applied Physics curriculum and as a resource to perform undergraduate research.” — Stephen Tsui, Professor at CSUSM #DTLcommunity #STEMeducation #physicseducation #educationtechnology #physics #STEM #undergradinSTEM #undergraduatephysics #materialsscience #experientiallearning #CSUSM

Scientists Achieve Million-Fold Energy Enhancement in Diamond Optical Antennas Theory has become practice as new work from the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering taps diamond defects’ remarkable ability to concentrate optical energy. Researchers have developed atomic antennas using germanium vacancy centers in diamonds, achieving a million-fold optical energy enhancement. This advancement allows the study of fundamental physics and opens new research avenues. The collaboration between theoretical and experimental teams was essential to this breakthrough.

I am glad to share that this presentation marked the end of my undergraduate research experience over the summer of 2023 at the University of Dayton. Title: Elimination of quantum interference fringes by environmental monitoring of momentum in double slit experiments. Thesis: Environmental interactions cause particles to behave classically. Summary: 1. Double slit experiment and its formalism 2. Brief history of Quantum Mechanics 3. Factors that prevent massive particles from interfering 4. Setup with a 2-level atom and a 1-photon electromagnetic field Result: New irradiance formalism for the double slit experiment

Professor Zhiling Lan received a $1.5 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to model a distributed, resilient workflow process for the department’s High Energy Physics program in neutrino and collider science. Her work will help scientists unlock the mysteries of neutrinos, creating a clearer picture of the universe and how it works.
