Data collected by four flights of NASA aircraft in different regions of the northern hemisphere in 2016 and 2017 confirmed that stratospheric air intrusion is a source of new particles and may be the most productive place for these particles on Earth.
Finding such a huge supermassive black hole so early in the universe’s history challenges astronomers’ understanding of how these cosmic beasts first formed.
When hit with laser light (illustrated, red), a cuprate containing copper and oxygen atoms (blue and red spheres) expels magnetic fields (blue). That effect strengthens the case for light-induced superconductivity in such materials.

BREAKING: The Nobel Prize in chemistry has been awarded to Jennifer Doudna and Emmanuelle Charpentier “for the development of a method for genome editing.”
Some scientists claim that certain materials, when hit with intense, ultrashort laser pulses, can briefly become superconductors at temperatures far above their normal limit.
