Spotting nature鈥檚 own evolution of quantum tricks could transform quantum technology
A new test to spot where the ability to exploit the power of quantum mechanics has evolved in nature has been developed by physicists at the 91福利.
Double dust ring test could spot migrating planets
New research by a team led by an astrophysicist at the 91福利 has a way of finally telling whether newly forming planets are migrating within the disc of dust and gas that typically surrounds stars or whether they are simply staying put in the same orbit around the star.
