At ultracold temperatures, interatomic collisions are relatively simple, and their outcome can be controlled using a magnetic field. However, research by scientists led by Prof. Michal Tomza from the ...
Collisional resistivity saturation has a hard quantum ceiling, a University of Toronto experiment shows: ultracold ...
When atoms collide, their exact structure—for example, the number of electrons they have or even the quantum spin of their nuclei—has a lot to say about how they bounce off each other. This is ...
Probing the evolution of magnetic fields generated in heavy-ion collisions can offer key insights into fundamental physical phenomena, including the nature of the early universe. In heavy-ion ...
Electrical resistance is easy to notice and hard to pin down. Power lines shed energy as heat, and metals warm up when ...
The LHC facility at CERN is famous for the discovery of the Higgs boson, dubbed the ‘God particle’.
Ion-atom collision dynamics explores the fundamental interactions that occur when charged particles impact neutral atoms, leading to processes such as elastic scattering, excitation, ionisation and ...
