Here's what it would take to see a black hole's photon ring

Supermassive black holes are elusive creatures. Massive gravitational beasts that can power immensely bright quasars, or can lurk quietly among the bright stars of a galactic core. We mostly study them indirectly through ...

Nanoscale rust: The future of magnets?

Every motor we use needs a magnet. University of Manitoba researcher Rachel Nickel is studying how rust could make those magnets cheaper and easier to produce.

How quantum light sees quantum sound

Researchers at the University of East Anglia have proposed a new way of using quantum light to "see" quantum sound.

Intense lasers shine new light on the electron dynamics of liquids

An international team of researchers from the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter (MPSD) in Hamburg and ETH Zurich has now demonstrated that it is possible to probe electron dynamics in liquids using ...

Integrating 2D materials for on-chip photonics

Recently, the introduction of nonlinear optical functions in integrated optics has sparked significant enthusiasm. Demonstrations have shown the potential for integrated photonic platforms. Furthermore, large-scale manufacturing ...
