Atomic spins set quantum fluid in motion: Experimental realization of the Einstein–de Haas effect
The Einstein–de Haas effect, which links the spin of electrons to macroscopic rotation, has now been demonstrated in a ...

The science behind gyrocompasses, how Earth’s rotation guides ships, aircraft, and spacecraft
Magnetic compasses struggle aboard steel ships, but gyrocompasses solve the problem by exploiting Earth’s rotation itself. This video explains the physics of gyroscopes, precession, and modern fiber ...
Physicists have used a new optical centrifuge to control the rotation of molecules suspended in liquid helium nano-droplets, ...
Magnetic rotation and antimagnetic rotation represent distinct mechanisms by which atomic nuclei generate angular momentum in systems that exhibit little or no permanent quadrupole deformation. In ...
The observed near flatness of galactic rotation curves has long been interpreted as evidence for large amounts of non-baryonic dark matter. Here we show that this phenom ...
How many times have you said, “I wish the days were longer”? Well, NASA scientists say the construction of China’s Three Gorges Dam actually did make the days longer, by slowing the rotation of the ...
