Johan Chang: New publication in Nature Physics
on the impact of low-energy spin fluctuations on the strange metal in a cuprate superconductor.
It was investigate how the strange metal phase of La2-xSrxCuO4 is impacted by a field-induced glassy antiferromagnetic state. Strange metals exhibit unusual properties such as a resistivity that scales linearly with temperature. It was found that the transport properties of the strange metal phase are closely linked to low-energy magnetic fluctuations that persist at
the lowest temperatures. -

New fundamental physics at the Bedretto Lab
Björn Penning leads a new research initiative to establish a fundamental physics laboratory at ETH’s BedrettoLab. Situated up to 1.5 kilometers beneath the surface in solid granite, the BedrettoLab offers ideal conditions to study fundamental physics. In this interview, Björn shares what makes the BedrettoLab so well suited for this research and outlines the scientific questions he hopes to investigate there.

First result from Superconducting Dark Matter Detector
Superconducting sensors can detect single low-energy photons. Researchers with leading contributions from groups from our institute (Schilling, Baudis, Penning, Neupert) have used this capability in a dark matter experiment (QROCODILE) and published first results in PRL.

The LHC experiment collaborations at CERN receive Breakthrough Prize
The prize was awarded to the collaborations for their “detailed measurements of Higgs boson properties confirming the symmetry-breaking mechanism of mass generation, the discovery of new strongly interacting particles, the study of rare processes and matter-antimatter asymmetry, and the exploration of nature at the shortest distances and most extreme conditions at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider”.

Gina Gibson: Artist-in-residence
Gina Gibson ist bildende Künstlerin und Professorin für digitale Kommunikation an der Black Hills State University (US).
Gina ist Gastprofessorin und Artist-in-Residence am Physik-Instituts. Während ihres Aufenthalts wird sie mit Forschenden zusammenarbeiten, und Kunst schaffen, die sich mit der wissenschaftlichen Gemeinschaft auseinandersetzt und die Überschneidung von Kunst und Physik erforscht.
Ihre Arbeiten sind derzeit in der Ausstellung UZHN/EARTH im Science Pavilion UZH zu sehen.
