Semi-Dirac Fermions Found in ZrSiS: Quasiparticles with Directional Mass Behavior
Researchers at Penn State and Columbia University identified semi-Dirac fermions, quasiparticles theorized 16 years ago, in ZrSiS crystals. These particles are massless in one direction but have mass in another. The findings, published in Physical Review X, were made using magneto-optical spectroscopy at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory....

Rocket Debris From Space Launches Have 10 Percent Chance of Injuring Humans by Next Decade, Claims Study
Rocket parts that are often left in orbit during space launches may have a six to 10 percent chance to injure or kill humans in the next decade, claims a study conducted by researchers at the University of British Columbia, Canada. If the leftover rocket parts have a low enough orbit, they can re-enter the atmosphere in an uncontrolled way.
