The anomalous Hall effect is a phenomenon that occurs in magnetic materials, particularly in ferromagnetic materials where electron spins are aligned. When an electric current flows through a metal sample in a magnetic field, it experiences the Lorentz force, generating a voltage perpendicular to the magnetic field and current. This effect, known as the Hall

In a groundbreaking development, scientists at the University of Nottingham’s School of Physics have devised a cutting-edge method to capture dark matter by utilizing a specially designed 3D printed vacuum system. This innovative approach aims to detect domain walls within dark matter, potentially uncovering some of the enigmatic mysteries of the universe. The universe we
The process of creating demos for big showcases or events within the gaming industry can sometimes be a facade, as revealed in Luke Plunkett’s interview with ‘Albert’, an anonymous industry veteran. The pressure to generate hype often leads to the creation of content that is detached from the actual project’s development stage, resulting in misleading
Nintendo, now a gaming giant, was not always on the radar in the United States. In 1980, the company released a handheld device called Toss-Up under its “Game & Watch” series. However, the first US commercial for this hardware product did not mention Nintendo or Game & Watch at all. Instead, the games were initially
The study of halide perovskites has gained much attention in recent years due to their potential for use in photovoltaics, LEDs, and other optoelectronic devices. These materials exhibit remarkable optoelectronic properties, such as long carrier lifetimes and diffusion lengths, making them promising candidates for various applications. Recent research by the University of Texas at Austin
In a groundbreaking study published in the journal Optica, researchers at HHMI’s Janelia Research Campus have successfully applied astronomy techniques to the field of microscopy. By utilizing a class of methods known as phase diversity, traditionally used in astronomy, they have developed a faster, cheaper, and more accessible way to achieve clearer and sharper images
The field of quantum computing holds enormous promise for advancements in human health, drug discovery, and artificial intelligence. Quantum computers have the ability to solve incredibly complex problems millions of times faster than traditional supercomputers. However, a major obstacle that researchers face is the challenge of connecting qubits—or quantum bits—with atomic precision. A research team
The recent report by Human Rights Watch sheds light on the disturbing practice of using images and personal details of children from Brazil without their knowledge or consent to train AI models. The images have been scraped from various sources, including mommy blogs, personal websites, and YouTube videos. This blatant violation of privacy raises serious
The ongoing debate surrounding the effectiveness of hashtags on social media platforms has gained attention recently. Instagram chief Adam Mosseri has been vocal about the limited impact of hashtags on post reach within the app. While acknowledging the role of hashtags in connecting posts with specific communities, Mosseri emphasized that the overall benefit of hashtags
Mixtape, the upcoming narrative game from Beethoven & Dinosaur, aims to capture the essence of coming-of-age teen flicks through its storyline and visuals. Drawing inspiration from 80s rom-com films, the game follows three friends on the cusp of adulthood, reflecting on their teenage years in North California. The trailer exudes a sense of nostalgia, inviting
