Two-dimensional (2D) materials have proved to be a promising platform for studying exotic quasiparticles, such as excitons.

A n experiment has visualized a prediction about objects traveling at the speed of light known as the Penrose-Terrell Effect, first made over 60 years ago.

For example, our algorithm identified the Lorentz symmetry, which has to do with the constancy of the speed of light. Our algorithm also identified rotational symmetry — the fact, for example, that a ...

The materials that make up all the structures and physical systems around us, including our own bodies, are not perfect—they ...

“We found out two things. The first one is that the electronic state of Fe3Sn2 is nematic, a state that spontaneously breaks the rotation symmetry. The electrons behave as a liquid crystal inside this ...

in which the sixfold rotational symmetry is broken. These observations thus corroborate sixfold rotational symmetry breaking throughout the CDW phase of RbV3⁢Sb5 and KV3⁢Sb5.

Researchers uncover physical laws explaining why cracks in materials break their symmetry while spreading. The findings lay ...

Despite some highly-publicized incidents, flying commercially is still safer than traveling by car. What was the worst ...
