Why are our solar system planets tilted: These warped exoplanet-forming disks may offer clues
The origin of the differing tilts in the orbits of the planets in our solar system may have been revealed through the discovery of subtle warps spotted in many planet-forming disks around young stars.
A major observing program with ALMA (Atacama…

Attosecond control and measurement of chiral photoionization dynamics
Chirality is traditionally viewed as a structural property of matter. The spatial arrangement of atoms in molecules and materials indeed defines their handedness. In a simplified view, structural chirality is often used to explain chiral…

Symmetry in quantum materials shapes high-harmonic light emission
A new study uncovers how glide-mirror symmetry in two-dimensional nodal line semimetals eliminates even-order harmonics and shapes the emission of high-order optical signals. The symmetry not only restricts which harmonics are produced but also…
