Schrödinger-cat-like states: an Emerging Talents Lab Talk with Florian Fröwis
In a recently published Emerging Talents paper in Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical Florian Fröwis investigates Lower bounds on the size of general Schrödinger-cat states from experimental data. Florian spoke to JPhys+ to explain more about Schrödinger-cat-like states. Recent experiments have… Read More ›
Size matters: Small force sensors reveal big information
Biological cells have a wide range of complex functions, and a number of these are driven by tiny, molecularly generated forces acting within the cell. We asked Dr. Meenakshi Prabhune to talk to us about the latest tools for measuring… Read More ›
Increasing local field enhancement factor in small clusters of emitters in close proximity
Could close proximity electrostatic effect in small clusters of emitters be used to design nanometric oscillators?
Electronic response of a plasma-facing dielectric solid
Towards a microscopic understanding of the transfer of the plasma’s electronic non-equilibrium to a solid.
Dynamical phase transitions: an Emerging Talents Lab Talk with Alexandre Lazarescu
In a newly published Emerging Talents paper in Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical Alexandre Lazarescu investigates a Generic dynamical phase transition in one-dimensional bulk-driven lattice gases with exclusion. Alexandre spoke to JPhys+ to explain more about dynamical phase… Read More ›
New data on self-organisation in magnetised plasmas
We thought we understood magnetron plasmas, but the discovery of spokes shows that we did not!
Super-resolving cell biology problems
How can we investigate the small structures inside our cells using super-resolution microscopy?
Efficient terahertz generation for table top free electron laser
Can we produce optically enough millimeter-wave radiation to accelerate electrons on a table-top? We hear from Dr Giovanni Cirmi.
Percolation: Where physics and mathematics meet for coffee
We talk to Ralph Kenna and Bertrand Berche about their paper on Universal finite-size scaling for percolation theory in high dimensions published in Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical. They talk about the importance of percolation in mathematics and… Read More ›
An interview with Emerging Leader Endre Szili
“I am hoping that there will be an even higher level of cooperation and collaboration amongst researchers and clinicians in this field, leading to larger, multi-centre clinical trials of plasma in wound decontamination/healing and cancer therapy.”
2D ternary oxides – a new platform for substrate bound 2D materials
How to fabricate atomically-thin 2D ternary oxide crystals via bottom-up synthesis
Extending the reach of integrability in AdS/CFT as far as possible
In their recently published Emerging Talents paper in Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical Stijn van Tongeren and Ben Hoare study Jordanian deformations of AdS5 and supergravity. Stijn has taken the time to answer some questions from JPhys+ to tell… Read More ›
Fast pulse sequence switches magnetization
“Venerable magnetism meets a young laser with novel results.” Can switching be realized by directly applying the fast pulse sequence of a TiS oscillator?
Advanced strategies for magnetic sensor integration with biomedical devices
Next generation biomedical smart systems will rely on creative integration of microfluidics and magnetic sensors for high-performance biosensors
Can relativity explain coherent ultrafast magnetism?
Recent research reveals that previously unknown relativistic physics could be at the heart of femtosecond coherent magnetism.
Work hard and pursue your dreams: An interview with Jesús Pérez Ríos
We get some inspiration after speaking with Dr Jesús Pérez Ríos, member of Professor Chris H. Greene’s group (Purdue University), about his research and hearing his overview of the field of AMO physics.
