The spinning reel in an online slot game feels thrilling. But have you realised that specific results seem to repeat themselves more than others?

Physicists call this strange state a quantum spin liquid, and for decades it has been one of the most elusive phases of ...

The development of significantly faster computers might be feasible if the spin of electrons could be used as information carrier in data processing. What is this electron spin? The spin gives the ...

Physicists have discovered a much faster approach to create a pattern of spins in a magnet. This 'shortcut' opens a new chapter in topology research. Interestingly, this discovery also offers an ...

Scientists have identified an unexpected shared pattern in the collective movement of bacteria and electrons: As billions of bacteria stream through a microfluidic lattice, they synchronize and swim ...

(Nanowerk News) An analysis of more than 200,000 spiral galaxies has revealed unexpected links between spin directions of galaxies, and the structure formed by these links might suggest that the early ...

Astronomers have uncovered a vast, razor-thin strand of galaxies that is not just drifting through space but spinning ...

We're smack in the middle of hurricane season, which means that many tropical vacation plans are about to be ruined by howling winds and bendy palm trees. Hurricanes are called many different things — ...

Elena Kammann and colleagues from the UK, Singapore, Greece and Russia have demonstrated that polariton spin can be transported over millimetre-scale distances (>300 μm) without significant loss of ...

Exploiting quantum properties to outperform classical ways of information processing is an outstanding goal of modern physics. A promising route is quantum simulation, which aims at implementing ...

This image shows an all-sky mollweide map of the quadrupole in the distribution of galaxy spin directions. In this image, the different colors mean different statistical strength of having a ...
