Predicting the lifetime of an electric ion thruster is notoriously difficult. You have to account for the chamber wall effects, which are not present in space environments. Researchers within several ...

Heat engines, converting heat into useful work, are vital in modern society. With advances in nanotechnology, exploring quantum heat engines (QHEs) is crucial for designing efficient systems and ...

To address critical research challenges in heavy-ion collisions at Fermi-energy regimes—specifically targeting the nuclear equation of state (nEoS), Femtoscopic interferometry of light nuclei, and ...

The project aims to establish new experimental techniques for high precision measurement and control of laser-cooled trapped ions. Some of the associates responsibilities include but are not limited ...

Time already behaves strangely in modern physics. It can stretch, slow, and split depending on speed and gravity. Now a new theoretical study pushes that weirdness into even stranger territory. It ...
