April 9, 2025 Supersymmetry shows up in condensed matter, not colliders
New findings based on neutron scattering experiments performed at the ILL and ISIS reveal supersymmetric behaviour in a quantum material, demonstrating that it can emerge naturally in condensed matter. This has promising practical implications for making stable qubits for quantum computing. The study, led by researchers at PSI, is published in Nature Communications.

March 17, 2022 Frustrated antiferromagnets in a whorl
Tiny vortices in magnetic materials called skyrmions act like quantum particles. If able to be stabilised and then manipulated, they could lead the next-generation of electronic devices that exploit magnetic spin to transfer and store information. A new type of skyrmion discovered in an antiferromagnetic compound could wind up progress in the right direction.The study of complex magnetic behaviou…
