A faster, more affordable way to produce quantum nanodiamonds helps ensure the next generation of bling

An international team of scientists from three continents led by Dr. Petr Cígler of IOCB Prague has developed a method for creating light-emitting quantum centers in nanodiamonds in only a matter of minutes. In just one week, the process can yield as much material as conventional methods would produce in more than forty years.
The lesson:
What "impossible" problems in your field stopped being investigated because expert consensus closed the case? What could you unlock if you questioned fundamental limits as rigorously as you accept them?
Sometimes heresy is just premature truth waiting for desperate people willing to test it.

Why didn't this skateboard stunt start from the top?


MIT researchers have devised a new molecular technique that lets electrons probe inside atomic nuclei, replacing massive particle accelerators with a tabletop setup. By studying radium monofluoride, they detected energy shifts showing electrons interacting within the nucleus. This breakthrough could help reveal why matter dominates over antimatter in the universe.

Scientists have created the first real-time 3D simulations of how lasers alter the quantum vacuum. Using cutting-edge computational modeling, scientists from the University of Oxford, in collaboration with the Instituto Superior Técnico at the University of Lisbon, have successfully produced the fi
What if #mind 🧠 and #matter ⚛️ aren't opposites at all—but two sides of the same #reality 🌌?
In this #Zoomposium, #WaltervonLucadou questions the centuries-old separation of #body and #soul: it is not the #mental that affects the #physical – they are complementarily connected. An idea that could revolutionize thinking in #psychology and #physics alike.
