Researchers have discovered unexpected 1D-like spin behavior in a triangular molecular lattice, challenging the conventional ...

And you might watch for players who put sidespin on the ball, the effects of which I'm sure you can now guess. They're all examples of players harnessing the physics of spin to their advantage.

Quantum dots are widely used for their ability to emit single photons at specific wavelengths. These photons are created by ...

Progress in solid-state physics tends to occur in increments rather ... but then Kravchenko and his collaborators switched off the spin. All electrons have a spin associated with them, but ...

Dr. Rod Cross, an avid tennis fan who earned his PhD in plasma physics from Sydney University, co-authored the book Technical Tennis: Racquets, Strings, Balls, Courts, Spin and Bounce with ...

Roulette has challenged the minds of countless gamers throughout history. Roulette was created in Paris in the 18th century ...

The role of electrons and their negative charge in electric current is well established. Electrons also exhibit other ...

Spin Hall nano-oscillators (SHNOs) are nanoscale spintronic devices that convert direct current into high-frequency microwave ...

Quantum spin liquids are fascinating states of matter where magnetic spins stay disordered, defying the usual rules of magnetism. Professor Yasuyuki Ishii and his team have made an exciting discovery ...

By linking theoretical predictions with neutron experiments, researchers have found evidence for quantum spin ice in the material Ce2Sn2O7. Their findings, which may inspire the technology of tomorrow ...

The physics underlying the effect of topspin and backspin are best explained by what’s known as the ‘Magnus effect’.
