- 1UW Physicist Yankowitz Named Moore Foundation Investigator●Yankowitz Selected as Moore Foundation Experimental Physics Investigator
Physicist Yankowitz of the University of Washington has been selected as an Experimental Physics Investigator by the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation. The honor recognizes leading experimental physicists and typically comes with substantial multi-year research funding. The announcement came from the university's College of Arts and Sciences, highlighting the researcher's standing in condensed matter and materials physics.
- 2Physicists Report Superconductor That Breaks Time Symmetry●Physicists Find a Superconductor That 'Breaks' The Symmetry of Time – A First For Its Kind
Physicists report the first known superconductor that appears to break time symmetry, meaning its properties are not the same when time runs forwards or backwards. The claim is described as a first of its kind in condensed matter physics, and science commentators are sharing the finding as a notable anomaly that could shed light on exotic superconducting states, while specialists await independent confirmation and peer scrutiny of the results.
