Scientists Discover a New Form of the Hall Effect That Defies a Century-Old Assumption
The Quark Side - Quantum Physics PodcastShow Notes
Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University have demonstrated a surprising new version of the Hall effect, showing that magnetic fields can generate electrical signals within the same plane of a material—without the perpendicular magnetic field traditionally considered necessary.
Using an ultrathin tantalum-iridium-tellurium structure, the discovery could enable smaller, more efficient multidimensional magnetic sensors for electronics, medical imaging, and navigation

Scientists have taken a major step toward quantum computing in space by testing a photonic quantum processor in low Earth orbit. The experiment faced an unexpected challenge early on, but the technology continued operating and revealed how quantum systems can perform far beyond the laboratory. Could space become the next frontier for quantum computing?
Scientists have spent seven years searching for an unusual form of dark matter deep underground.
Scientists have confirmed quasiparticles carrying just one-quarter of an electron’s charge in a remarkable quantum state.
Researchers have developed a quantum random-access memory system that connects one processor to seven storage cells.
Scientists are using the Large Hadron Collider and machine learning to search for microscopic black holes and other exotic particles. Although none were detected, the results narrow the possibilities for hidden dimensions and new physics beyond our current understanding.
