The scientists believe that light-based supersolids may be easier to work with than supersolids made using atoms. In the future, the team hopes to learn more about this quantum matter’s ...

In the annals of Victorian heroism, Florence Nightingale stands as a near-mythic figure: the “Lady with the Lamp,” a beacon of mercy amid the gore of the Crimean War (1853–56). To the Western ...

Florence Nightingale: Founder of Modern Nursing Florence Nightingale, born in 1820, was a social reformer and the founder of modern nursing. During the Crimean War, she managed and trained nurses to ...

A new 100 gigahertz chip that harnesses light – not electricity – to synchronise processors could unlock the future of high-speed AI computing, next-generation communications and remote ...

A small international team of nanotechnologists, engineers and physicists has developed a way to force laser light into becoming a supersolid. Their paper is published in the journal Nature.

In a remarkable development, researchers have successfully turned light into a supersolid for the first time, paving the way for new insights into the unusual quantum states of matter. This ...

Ladies bearing light. It's a familiar image — whether it's Florence Nightingale and her lamp, the Statue of Liberty and her torch, or the damsel with the beacon at the start of every Columbia ...

An odd solid that can flow like a fluid has been created from light for the first time. Studying it will help researchers better understand exotic quantum states of matter. “We actually made lig ...

Nightingale College facilitates higher learning along the professional nursing continuum focused on cognitive, practice, and everyday ethical comportment apprenticeships, while serving diverse ...
