Mathematicians have revisited an ancient puzzle known as the “kissing problem,” which was first contemplated by Isaac Newton and astronomer David Gregory in 1694. The problem involves arranging identical spheres around a central sphere without overlapping. After centuries of research, mathematicians have finally proven that the maximum number of spheres that can be arranged in…

Physicists at the University of Nottingham have made a groundbreaking discovery in the field of magnetism by imaging altermagnets in detail for the first time. The team used a technique developed at the MAX IV international synchrotron facility in Sweden to map the magnetic domains in manganese telluride (MnTe) down to the nanoscale level. This…
Theoretical physicists have proposed the existence of a new type of particle called paraparticles, which don’t fit into the conventional classifications of fermions and bosons. This discovery could lead to the creation of paraparticles using a quantum computer, potentially making quantum computers less error-prone. Researchers have also experimentally demonstrated the existence of anyons, a type…
