Physicists created a 'quantum vortex,' which flows with 500 times less viscosity than water and could be used to study the space-time warping caused by black holes. When you purchase through links ...

A giant quantum vortex may allow researchers to study black holes. This vortex is an eddy in a special form of liquid helium that displays quantum effects. The result has some properties similar ...

Black hole in a blender: The experimental set-up the researchers used to create the giant quantum vortex, which mimics certain behaviours of black holes. (Courtesy: Leonardo Solidoro) A novel ...

In the quantum semimetal tantalum arsenide (TaAs), electrons in momentum space behave like a swirling vortex. This quantum ...

The main way fluctuations destroy two-dimensional superconductivity is by the spontaneous emergence of what is called a quantum vortex. Each vortex resembles a tiny whirlpool composed of a microscopic ...

With further research, the discovery of the vortex electric field can also impact the fields of quantum computing, spintronics, and nanotechnology. "Previously, generating a vortex electric field ...

Demonstrating this quantum phenomenon marks a major milestone in quantum materials research. The team hopes that the vortex-like behavior of electrons in momentum space could pave the way for new ...

(Nanowerk News) Lord Kelvin theorized in 1880 that stimulating a thin vortex line would produce a helical deformation, later known as a Kelvin wave. While these waves have been observed in classical ...
