Optical Centrifuge Reveals Secrets of Frictionless Superfluids
Physicists at the University of British Columbia (UBC) and the University of Freiburg have developed a method to control molecular rotation within superfluid helium nano-droplets using an optical centrifuge. This advancement, published in Physical Review Letters, allows researchers to manipulate the direction and speed of molecules in a frictionless quantum environment, providing a new experimental … Read more
