  • Core-valence double ionization of carbon suboxide

    Core-valence double ionization of carbon suboxide

    As described in more detail in the Methods section, the core-valence double ionization spectra were measured using multi-electron coincidence detection and setting the photon energy sufficiently high above the carbon and oxygen 1s inner shells,…

    Observation of Floquet states in graphene

    Floquet energy gaps in trARPES experiments

    In the section ‘Experimental observables for Floquet engineering in graphene’ of the main text, we highlight two options to observe a Floquet-engineered band structure in an ARPES experiment. Option…

  • Big problem for fusion energy solved

    Big problem for fusion energy solved

    Abundant, low-cost, clean energy — the envisioned result if scientists and engineers can successfully produce a reliable method of generating and sustaining fusion energy — took one step closer to reality, as a team of researchers from The…

  • Physical cloaking works like a disappearing act for structural defects

    Physical cloaking works like a disappearing act for structural defects

    Whether designing a window in an airliner or a cable conduit for an engine, manufacturers devote a lot of effort to reinforcing openings for structural integrity. But the reinforcement is rarely perfect and often creates structural weaknesses…

  • A snapshot of relativistic motion: Special relativity made visible

    A snapshot of relativistic motion: Special relativity made visible

    When an object moves extremely fast — close to the speed of light — certain basic assumptions that we take for granted no longer apply. This is the central consequence of Albert Einstein’s special theory of relativity. The object then has a…

  • The Strange Secret Behind These Semiconductors That Seemingly Defy Physics

    The Strange Secret Behind These Semiconductors That Seemingly Defy Physics

    The mechanism that stabilizes new ferroelectric semiconductors also creates a conductive pathway, which could make them suitable for use in high-power transistors. A new type of semiconductor that can store information using electric fields may…
