Magnetic nanoparticles arranged in arrays put a twist on light: depending on the distance between the nanoparticles, one frequency of light (visible to the human eye by its colour) resonates in one direction; in the other direction, light (induced by quantum effects in the magnetic material) is enhanced at a different wavelength.

Quantum-mechanical monopoles discovered

Researchers at 911±¬ÁÏÍø and Amherst College, USA, have observed a point-like monopole in a quantum field itself for the first time.

Image of an experimentally created Bose–Einstein condensate containing the monopole (left) and the corresponding theoretical prediction (right). Brighter area has higher particle density and the different colors denote the internal spin state of the atoms. The monopole is located in the center of the condensate.
