A team of astrophysicists has identified a new, long-lasting source of gravitational waves: subgiant stars that are gradually stripped of their outer layers by nearby supermassive black holes.
Researchers from the University of Warsaw and the University of British Columbia have identified how a fundamental quantum excitation known as a lone spinon, a single, unpaired spin, can emerge in magnetic models.
Poland and Germany have completed the first international fibre-optic link for comparing ultra-precise time measurements between laboratories, marking a significant step toward building a pan-European timekeeping network.
A modified photosensitive CMOS matrix, an part of a smartphone camera, works well as a particle detector, e.g. for detecting the annihilation of antimatter. This is good news: particle detectors can be smaller, more accurate and cheaper, the team from CERN with the participation of Polish scientists demonstrated.
Scientists from the Warsaw University of Technology in collaboration with specialists from Norway and Germany have developed an AI tool that significantly improves the analysis of optical interferograms and holograms.
Scientists from the Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin have developed a new method for recovering rare earth elements from nickel-metal hydride batteries. These elements, used in the production of electric cars and laptops, among other things, are crucial for the development of modern industry.
A team of scientists from Wrocław University of Science and Technology has joined an international consortium that does research on new stealth technology materials for warships, the Wrocław university representatives report.
The KM3NeT underwater telescope at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea has detected a cosmic neutrino with a record energy of 220 petaelectronvolts - an energy thousands of times greater than at CERN.
An international team of scientists, including Polish researchers, has detected hydrogen isotopes from fusion fuel during a laser demonstration at the Joint European Torus (JET) tokamak. This laser technology allows to determine the chemical composition of samples in fusion reactors, among other things.
