When semiconductors stick together, materials go quantum

Researchers have developed a simple method that could turn ordinary semiconducting materials into quantum machines -- superthin devices marked by extraordinary electronic behavior that could help to revolutionize a number of industries aiming for energy-efficient electronic systems -- and provide a platform for exotic new physics. from All Top News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/03/190307103153.htm

ISS Daily Summary Report – 3/06/2019

Plasma Krystall-4 (PK-4): Today a crewmember initiated three runs for the group 2 of the PK-4 experiment and performed a hard drive change out for data downlink. PK-4 is a scientific collaboration between the ESA and the Roscosmos, performing research in the field of “Complex Plasmas”: low temperature gaseous mixtures composed of ionized gas, neutral … from ISS On-Orbit Status Report https://blogs.nasa.gov/stationreport/2019/03/06/iss-daily-summary-report-3-06-2019/

New surprises from Jupiter and Saturn

The latest data from the giant planets has sent researchers back to the drawing board. Cassini orbited Saturn for 13 years before its dramatic final dive into the planet's interior, while Juno has been orbiting Jupiter for two and a half years; the data collected has been 'invaluable but also confounding,' said one of the researchers. from All Top News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/03/190306152409.htm
