  1. First Quantum Teleportation Between Light And Matter
    10-06-2006 · ScienceDaily
    Researcher at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics in Garching and the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen have succeeded in transferring a quantum state of light to a material object -- an ensemble of atoms.

  2. Finding the door to a parallel universe
    01-30-2008 · EurekAlert!
    If there were a wormhole linking us to a parallel universe, how would we spot it? One suggestion is that it will give itself away by the curious way it bends light. This idea assumes the existence of so called "phantom matter" which has been proposed to explain how a wormhole might stay open. The phantom matter would cause light from another universe, passing through the wormhole, to diverge and emerge as a bright ring.

  3. Strange fluids may shed light on the universe
    02-13-2008 · EurekAlert!
    It's an ambitious task, recreating the universe in a bucket. But if it is successful, the experiment could help solve the twin puzzles of why we're made of matter rather than antimatter and where the huge magnetic fields that span galaxies come from.

  4. Star light, star bright: FSU facility duplicating conditions of supernovas
    08-14-2007 · EurekAlert!
    How is matter created? What happens when stars die? Is the universe shrinking, or is it expanding? At Florida State University, a new facility known as RESOLUT is helping physicists conduct experiments that may help provide answers to just such questions.

  5. Study sheds new light on early star formation in the universe
    09-13-2007 · EurekAlert!
    A groundbreaking study has provided new insight into the way the first stars were formed at the start of the universe, some 13 billion years ago. Cosmologists from Durham University, publishing their results in the prestigious international academic journal, Science, suggest that the formation of the first stars depends crucially on the nature of "dark matter," the strange material that makes up most of the mass in the universe.

  6. Oldest stars may shed light on dark matter, researchers report in Science
    09-13-2007 · EurekAlert!
    The universe's earliest stars may hold clues to the nature of dark matter, the mysterious stuff that makes up most of the universe's matter but doesn’t interact with light, cosmologists report.

  7. What light from yonder neutron breaks?
    12-20-2006 · EurekAlert!
    Researchers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and four universities have made the first experimental observation of rare particles of light emitted during the radioactive decay of the neutron, a key building block of matter. This work confirms theoretical predictions of this type of decay of the neutron and sets the stage for a new class of tests of basic theories in particle physics.

  8. FSU physicist shining a light on mysterious 'dark matter'
    10-02-2007 · EurekAlert!
    We've all been taught that our bodies, the Earth and in fact all matter in the universe is composed of tiny building blocks called atoms. Now imagine if this weren't the case. This mind-bending concept is at the core of the scientific research that one Florida State University professor -- and hundreds of his colleagues all over the world -- are pursuing.

    12-06-2007 · EurekAlert!
    Much of the gaseous mass of the universe is bound up in a tangled web of cosmic filaments that stretch for hundreds of millions of light-years, according to a new supercomputer study by a team led by the University of Colorado at Boulder.

  10. 'Tornadoes' are transferred from light to sodium atoms
    11-09-2006 · EurekAlert!
    For the first time, tornado-like rotational motions have been transferred from light to atoms in a controlled way at NIST. The new quantum physics technique can be used to manipulate Bose-Einstein condensates, a state of matter of worldwide research interest and possibly used in quantum information systems.
