SPIN

Proton~proton and proton~neutron collisions affect particle spins very different than theory predicted

Surprising result shocks scientists studying spin Imagine playing a game of billiards, putting a bit of counter-clockwise spin on the cue ball and watching it deflect to the right as it strikes its target ball. With luck, or skill, the target ball sinks into the corner pocket while the rightward-deflected cue ball narrowly misses a side-pocket scra...

Researchers find extremely long spin relaxation lifetime in graphene/TMDC structures | Spintronics-Info Nov 18, 2017GrapheneTechnicalResearchers from Spain's ICN2 institute have performed numerical simulations for spin relaxation in graphene/TMDC heterostructures, and found that these structure feature a spin lifetime anisotropy that is orders of magnitude larger than anything observed in 2D materials...

Spinning light waves might be 'locked' for photonics technologies A newly described property related to the "spin" and momentum of light waves suggests potential practical applications in photonic communications and photonic circuits.

Ludzkość będzie musiała zweryfikować prawa fizyki? NASA potwierdza istnienie silnika, który nie... Gdy w 2000 roku brytyjski naukowiec Roger Shawyer ogłosił, że udało mu się opracować silnik EmDrive, przeczący – na pierwszy rzut oka – prawu zachowania pędu, nikt nie potraktował go poważnie. 9 lat później prototyp napędu postanowili zbudować chińscy badacze, którzy potwierdzili działanie urządzeni…
