For the first time, ions moving at one-third the speed of light have been cooled.

At the German GSI Institute, scientists have, for the first time, managed to slow down and fully capture highly ionized argon ions moving at 30% of the speed of light, and cool them using electron cooling. This method opens up new possibilities for precise studies of rare particles.

A new model has explained the mystery of the strange metal.

A new study has shown that the unusual properties of cuprates in the "strange metal" state are linked to changes in their electronic structure, rather than to the mechanism of electron scattering. This resolves the contradiction between experiment and theory and confirms the universality of the Planckian limit.
