The Einstein–de Haas effect, which links the spin of electrons to macroscopic rotation, has now been demonstrated in a quantum fluid by researchers at Science Tokyo. The team observed this effect in a Bose–Einstein condensate of europium atoms,

The Einstein-de Haas effect has been observed in a quantum fluid, showing that changes in magnetization transfer angular momentum from atomic spins to collective motion.

The most precise clocks ever built are now testing Einstein, hunting dark matter, and reshaping how we define time itself. In A Nutshell The world’s most precise clocks are changing how we understand time itself: Unprecedented precision: The best optical atomic clocks wouldn’t drift by more than a second over the entire 13.

It has been revealed that simply twisting and stacking two layers of oxide crystals can allow the atomic arrangement itself to control the behavior of electrons. Much like the new patterns that emerge when two meshes are overlapped and rotated,

The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists will determine if the "Doomsday Clock" needs to be adjusted at 10 a.m. ET on Jan. 27.

Doomsday Clock warns humans are trending closer to catastrophe at 85 seconds from midnight. Here's what to know.

For many decades, the method to obtain atomic-level descriptions of chemical compounds and materials—be it a drug, a catalyst, or a commodity chemical—has been X-ray crystallography. This method has a known weakness: it requires one single,
