Superconductors: Amazingly orderly disorder

Physics - May 14
Physics

A surprising effect was discovered through a collaborative effort by researchers from TU Wien and institutions in Croatia, France, Poland, Singapore, Switzerland, and the US during the investigation of a special material: the atoms are arranged in a completely disordered manner but produce magnetic order.

A Snapshot of Relativistic Motion: Special relativity made visible

A technical trick has been used to simulate a speed of light of only 2 m/s in the laboratory. This made it possible to reproduce the relativistic Terrell-Penrose effect for the first time.

New, non-toxic synthesis method for ’miracle material’ MXene

Physics

The nanomaterial MXene is used for battery technology or as a high-performance lubricant. Until now, its production was difficult and toxic. New methods have been developed at TU Wien.

Light from Artificial Atoms

Physics

Superconducting circuits are being used at TU Wien and ISTA to create new types of quantum systems that are much easier to control and much more tunable than natural quantum systems like atoms.

Even Quantum Physics Obeys the Law of Entropy

Physics

Is there a contradiction between quantum theory and thermodynamics? On the surface, yes - but at TU Wien, researchers have now shown how the two fit together perfectly.
