Physicists Achieve Record-Breaking Electron Beam Power and Current at SLAC
Researchers at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have set a new record by generating the highest-current, highest-peak-power electron beam ever recorded. The beam reached 100 kiloamps in just one quadrillionth of a second, achieved through advanced compression techniques and magnetic field manipulation. This breakthrough could have major implica...

Scientists Investigate Hypernuclei To Understand Subatomic Forces and Neutron Stars
A groundbreaking study on hypernuclei, led by Ulf-G. Meißner from the Institute for Advanced Simulation, uses nuclear lattice effective field theory to explore the interactions of Λ-hyperons within atomic nuclei. The research, published in The European Physical Journal A, provides key insights into the forces that shape hypernuclei and their pote...

Large Hadron Collider Detects Heaviest Antimatter Particle, Sheds Light on Early Universe Conditions
CERN's ALICE detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has identified the heaviest antimatter particle observed to date. By replicating early universe conditions, this discovery provides new insights into the dominance of matter over antimatter. The particle, an antimatter counterpart of hyperhelium-4, emerges from a state of matter known as "qua...

NOAA's New Solar Telescope Captures Dramatic Footage of the Sun Spraying Huge Charged Particles
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has unveiled remarkable footage from the new Compact Coronagraph (CCOR-1), which is aboard the GOES-19 satellite. This advanced telescope captures charged particles and solar eruptions from the Sun’s corona, vital for monitoring solar activity as it approaches its peak in 2025. By blockin...

Quantum Messages Could Hold the Key to Discovering Interstellar Extraterrestrial Life, Study Says
While scientists dig for signs of ancient life on other planets and carry out ambitious missions, new research has suggested the exploration of quantum messages for traces of life. In the study, scientists noted that photons or particles of light can travel vast interstellar distances while retaining their quantum nature. With this conclusion, scie...

Saturn's Aurorae Fuelled by Planet's High-Altitude Winds, Research States
An aurora is a beautiful display of natural lights in the sky, usually seen near the North and South Poles at night. Scientists have long believed that aurorae are created when the solar winds interact with the Earth's magnetic field — when streams of electrified particles emitted by the Sun are trapped in the magnetic field of the Earth.

Scientists Teleport Particle Of Light Over Six Kilometres, Set Record
In a first, scientists have successfully teleported a photon - particle of light - over a distance of six kilometres, an advance that may enable secure communication without having to worry about eavesdropping.

World's Smallest Engine Developed, Made Of Tiny Charged Gold Particles
Scientists have developed the world's tiniest engine - just a few billionths of a metre in size - which is powered by light and may help develop nano-machines that can navigate in water, sense the environment around them, or even enter living cells to fight disease.
