In a paper just published in Physical Review Letters, Guenther Walther, a mathematician at Stanford University in California, shows that the observation that the number of neutrinos detected decreases when sunspots are plentiful is no more than an error in counting.
This research, published recently in Physical Review Letters, supports a theory put forward several years ago by John Abrahamson, a chemical engineer from the University of Canterbury, in New Zealand.
As the researchers report in a forthcoming issue of Physical Review Letters, they managed to hold significant numbers of isolated rubidium atoms in place by shining a laser beam on to an array of microscopic lenses.
He wrote two scientific papers on his theory and was eventually published in the Physical Review Letters journal, sparking a 40-year hunt for the Higgs boson.
Recently, researchers writing in Physical Review B suggested that arranging a number of tiny cloaks in a two-dimensional grid could be put to use in biomedicine and sensing, as well as traditional camouflage.
In a new paper published last week in Physical Review Letters, researchers at the Niels Bohr Institute have published a method that allows for much more stable quantum entanglement, which may help pave the way for better quantum communication and quantum computing.
