This particular neutron star is thought to have one of the strongest magnetic fields among the population of known pulsars: a few trillion times stronger than the magnetic field of the sun. The international research team’s results have been published…

Semiconductors that efficiently convert energy to light or vice versa. Now, next-generation semiconducting materials are exploring new study, researchers have driven modern advances in technology and photovoltaics yet again. Essentially, 2D materials are at the cutting edge of materials research.…

The feat is a step toward making quantum computing devices from silicon, the same material used in today’s smartphones and computers. The team created qubits from single electrons trapped in silicon chambers known as double quantum dots. Scientists have shown…
