A new quantum state of matter has been found in a material which could be useful in building self-charging and deep-space quantum computers.
The phase of matter was independently theoretically predicted by several researchers in the mid-1960s. Its discovery in a lab experiment is published in the journal Physical Review Letters.
“It’s a new phase of matter, similar to how water can exist as liquid, ice or vapor,” says corresponding author Luis A. Jauregui, professor of physics & astronomy at the University of California, Irvine in the US.Professor Luis Jauregui of the UC Irvine Department of Physics & Astronomy described how the new material he and his lab developed only exists in their labs.

Texas A&M Scientists have developed a nasal spray that reduces inflammation in the brain. The spray is being heralded as a potential effective treatment for dementia and Alzheimer’s patients. Research leader Dr. Ashok Shetty said, “Brain age-related diseases like dementia ...
Scientists have discovered an example in nature of genetic exchange of information through DNA that defies their understanding. A microscopic organism’s genetics was able to reassign gene-stopping signals to amino acids, a feat not imagined possible for life before this ...
If not an outright cure, a new discovery could turn Sickle Cell Anemia from a deadly and painful chronic disease to a curable, or at least manageable disease. The discovery comes from Swee Lay Thein and Stuart Orkin.
