Scientists discover fractal patterns in a quantum material
Friday, October 18, 2019
A fractal is any geometric pattern that occurs again and again, at different sizes and scales, within the same object. This “self-similarity” can be seen throughout nature, for example in a snowflake’s edge, a river network, the splitting veins in a fern, and the crackling forks of lightning.

Using Hydrogen Ions to Manipulate Magnetism on the Molecular Scale
Friday, November 30, 2018
A team of researchers has determined how to use hydrogen ions to electrically control magnetism within a thin sample of a magnetic material.
'Organismic learning' mimics some aspects of human thought
Monday, August 14, 2017
A new computing technology called “organismoids” mimics some aspects of human thought by learning how to forget unimportant memories while retaining more vital ones
Scientists Find Static "Stripes" of Electrical Charge in Copper-Oxide Superconductor
Friday, October 14, 2016
Understanding the electronic ordering in copper-oxide superconductors could help scientists find the "recipe" for raising the temperature at which current can flow through these materials without energy loss.
