https://phys.org/ en-us Latest news from Technical University of Braunschweig Spin waves are considered to be promising candidates for a new form of electronics. Instead of electrons, the focus here is on magnons. These quantized units of spin waves describe how spin precession propagates. Similar to electrons, magnons can transmit information in a conductor. However, they do so with much lower resistance and thus a fraction of the energy consumption. https://phys.org/news/2025-10-flux-quanta.html Condensed Matter Thu, 16 Oct 2025 11:10:13 EDT news679831217 A team of researchers has now been able to show that there is an incredibly high biodiversity of environmentally relevant microorganisms in nature. This diversity is at least 4.5 times greater than previously known. The researchers recently published their findings in the journals Nature Communications and FEMS Microbiology Reviews. https://phys.org/news/2023-11-textbook-knowledge-in-microorganism.html Cell & Microbiology Thu, 02 Nov 2023 11:29:03 EDT news618143341
