LSU Physicists Create First Room-Temperature Quantum Material

Researchers at Louisiana State University have created a room-temperature quantum material made from a thin gold film on glass, patterned with microscopic slits that act like artificial atoms. "We call this robust transport. These quantum states carry information," says physicist Omar Magana-Loaiza. "Our crystal can distinguish them and move them from one point to another in a robust way without requiring cryogenic cooling. That's what opens the door to practical quantum technologies."

Psychology says the men who are genuinely, deeply unhappy in their 40s and 50s rarely look unhappy from the outside—they look fine, functional, even successful—and what they’re actually carrying is the weight of a life that no longer feels like their own

Some forms of unhappiness do not stop a man getting to work on time. They do not empty his calendar, end his marriage or make him visibly fall apart. From the outside, he may look organised, dependable and successful. The difficulty is precisely that the visible machinery of his life keeps working. We are writers, ... Read more Read more
