Observation of nonlinear edge states in an interacting atomic trimer array
We study the interplay between topology and nonlinearity by measuring the effect of varying interactions on the density population and participation ratio in the quench dynamics of topological atomic trimer arrays.
Exploring GeS₂ to Rethink Photonic Devices
From AR glasses to smart contact lenses, the future of photonics hinges on better materials. Our research highlights germanium disulfide (GeS₂), which combines high refractive index, full visible transparency, and strong anisotropy – unlocking new ways to control and shape light.
Personalised Uncertainty Quantification in Artificial Intelligence
Researchers at the Alan Turing Institute (UK's national institute for AI) have recently published a paper outlining eight grand challenges associated with personalised uncertainty quantification to boost trust in high-stakes AI decision systems.
Shifts in precipitation regimes exacerbate global inequality in grassland nitrogen cycles
Shifts in precipitation regimes may exacerbate global inequality in grassland nitrogen cycles. Low- and middle-income countries are expected to experience greater losses, but timely adaptation measures could promote balanced regional development.
