When quantum spins interact, they can produce collective behaviors that defy long-standing expectations. Researchers have now shown that the Kondo effect behaves very differently depending on spin size. In systems with small spins, it suppresses magnetism, but when spins are…
The fact that Crew-11 returned to Earth safely despite unprecedented circumstances bodes well for the success of future missions that go farther afield, astronauts said.
It may be one of the most iconic sights in the night sky, but astronomers have never seen the Helix Nebula like this before.
Great Scott! Legends of Tomorrow still rocks even 10 years later.
Astronaut Suni Williams left NASA late last month after 27 years of service. She spent a total of 608 days in space, more than all but one other American astronaut.
Psychological safety—the belief that it is safe to speak up with concerns, questions or mistakes—is widely recognized as essential for organizational learning, innovation and workplace safety.
