    Quantum decoherence by magnetic fluctuations in a magnetic topological insulator

    Single crystals of EuSn2As2, EuSn2P2, and the 1:1 alloy EuSn2AsP were prepared by a flux method similar to refs. 21,22. All three materials show similar nonlinear optical responses, and magnetic susceptibility measurements show clear signatures…

  • Solid gold superheated to 14 times its melting temperature

    Solid gold superheated to 14 times its melting temperature

    A cup of distilled water can sometimes be heated in a microwave for a long time without boiling, only to erupt explosively when the water is disturbed. This is an example of a phenomenon called superheating: the water is heated beyond its boiling…

    Coherent spectroscopy with a single antiproton spin

    Precision measurements of the magnetic properties of simple systems stand as a powerful tool for investigating fundamental physics, enabling some of the most precise tests of symmetry violations. For instance, the experiments described in ref.
