"Direct Imaging of Noble Gas Nanoclusters at Room Temperature"

Researchers have successfully stabilized and directly imaged small clusters of noble gas atoms at room temperature for the first time by trapping them between two graphene layers, overcoming the challenge of noble gases not forming stable structures at room temperature. This breakthrough opens up possibilities for condensed matter physics and applications in quantum information technology, with potential future studies focusing on the properties and behaviors of clusters with different noble gases at varying temperatures.

Observation of Fermionic Quasiparticles Vanishing in Slow Motion

Researchers have observed fermionic quasiparticles slowly "disappearing" near a quantum phase transition in a heavy-fermion compound, marking the first direct observation of this phenomenon. Unlike bosons, fermions are not typically involved in phase transitions. The study used terahertz time-domain spectroscopy to measure the critical slowing near the transition and extract a parameter known as the critical exponent. This research provides insights into the stability of fermionic quasiparticles and could have implications for quantum information technology.
