Scientists have revealed a strange twister-like phenomenon in the quantum semimetal tantalum arsenide. The findings suggest that electrons move in swirling patterns that could reshape ideas in quantum ...

J. Thomson’s discovery that atoms were not indivisible, but contained smaller, negatively charged entities called electrons — the first subatomic particles to be identified. Then, in 1911 ...

Two twisted boron nitride layers (blue and pink) create a crystal lattice at a distance in which electrons (gold) can arrange themselves in a regular pattern. Credit: Natasha Kiper / ETH Zurich ...
