FAU scientist and H.E.S.S. team observe time-dependent particle acceleration outside our solar system for the first time Novae are powerful eruptions on the surface of a white dwarf in a binary star system, in which a larger star and a smaller star orbit each other. A nova creates a shock wave that...

On the occasion of this year’s APS March Meeting and the DPG Spring Meetings, QuCoLiMa partnered with APS-TV to produce a 6 minute film about the research within QuCoLiMa. The overall message of the film is to convey the central idea of "Quantum Cooperativity of Light and Matter" and how this topic ...
