Physicists Prof. Dr. Ingo Rehberg from the University of Bayreuth and Dr. Peter Blümler from Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz have developed and experimentally validated an innovative approach for generating homogeneous magnetic fields using permanent magnets. Their method outperforms the classical Halbach arrangement — which is optimal only for infinitely long and therefore unrealizable magnets —…
For decades Iran’s supreme leader has sought to balance his ideological hostility towards the US and Israel with a pragmatic desire to avoid all-out war.

A team of solar physicists has released a new study shedding light on the fine-scale structure of the Sun’s surface. Using the unparalleled power of the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope, built and operated by the NSF National Solar Observatory (NSO) on Maui, scientists have observed, for the first time…
For decades, quantum computers that perform calculations millions of times faster than conventional computers have remained a tantalizing yet distant goal. However, a new breakthrough in quantum physics may have just sped up the timeline. In an article published in PRX Quantum, researchers from the Graduate School of Engineering Science and the Center for Quantum Information…
