When an aircraft moves at a speed greater than the speed of sound, we observe a phenomenon called the sonic boom when the aircraft is approaching supersonic speed. The first occurrence of breaking the sound barrier happened in 1947 by the Bell X-1 aircraft of the United States Air Force. Breaking the sound barrier is usually accompanied by a loud noise. But is there a similar phenomenon regarding light? In other words, when we surpass the speed of light, do we experience a similar event? Can we even exceed the speed of light? Yes. The speed of light in a vacuum is a constant value of approximately 300,000 kilometers per second. However, for example, the speed of light in water is about 200,000 kilometers per second. If an electron has an energy equivalent to 175 kiloelectron volts within water, it moves faster than the speed of light in water, i.e., at a speed exceeding 200,000 kilometers per second. Positrons also have the ability to reach such speeds. In this case, a phenomenon similar to the sonic boom occurs, but this time regarding light, which is called the Cherenkov Effect. This phenomenon, first discovered by the former Soviet physicist Pavel Cherenkov, states that when a charged particle passes through a transparent medium such as water or air, if the particle moves at a speed greater than the speed of light in that medium, a short and intense flash of light is produced, known as Cherenkov light. This light appears blue in the medium of water and Pavel Cherenkov was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1958 for the discovery of this phenomenon.

entechonline.com remembers Eugene Wigner on his Birth Anniversary. Born on 17 November 1902, Eugene Wigner was a visionary physicist. Wigner's scientific contributions spanned a wide range of areas, including atomic physics, nuclear physics, and particle physics. One of his most notable achievements was the discovery of fundamental symmetry principles, which revolutionized our understanding of these subjects. By exploring the principles of symmetry, Wigner unlocked crucial insights into the structure and mechanics of atomic nuclei and the elementary particles. In 1963, Wigner received the Nobel Prize in Physics for his outstanding contributions to the field of atomic nucleus and elementary particles. Throughout his career, Wigner maintained a keen interest in philosophy and the relationship between mathematics and the natural sciences. This interest led him to publish his best-known work outside technical mathematics and physics – the book titled "The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Mathematics in the Natural Sciences." In this thought-provoking work, Wigner examined the remarkable ability of mathematics to describe and explain phenomena in the physical world. As we remember Eugene Wigner on his Birth Anniversary, let us celebrate his extraordinary achievements and pay tribute to his unwavering pursuit of knowledge. #EugeneWigner, #PhysicsNobelPrize #AtomicNuclei #MathematicsInTheNaturalSciences #NuclearPhysics #AtomicPhysics #ParticlePhysics #QuantumMechanics #TheoreticalPhysics #ScienceHistory #STEMeducation #ScientificDiscovery #ScienceCommunication #ScienceFacts #InnovativeResearch #ScienceBreakthroughs #PhysicsCommunity #ScienceLovers #ScienceInspiration

My New scientist series - post- 25. 22 Nov 2023 The article published in science tech daily on November 20,2023 "Unraveling the Mysteries of ϕ Mesons: A New Breakthrough in Heavy-Ion Collision Physics" presents groundbreaking research by Prof. Wang Qun's team at the University of Science and Technology of China. The study challenges existing models, offering crucial insights into the behavior of exotic quarks during hadronization in gold nuclei collisions. Focusing on vector meson spin physics, the researchers delve into the unique properties of ϕ mesons. Their findings, published in Physical Review Letters, mark a significant milestone in high-energy nuclear spin physics, questioning conventional theoretical frameworks. The article explores the role of vector fields in representing strong interactions between exotic quarks during relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Prof. Wang's team introduces advanced modeling techniques, considering parameters like the transverse rise and longitudinal fall of the vector field, providing a nuanced understanding of quark gluon plasma asymmetry. Building on their 2019 research, the team reveals the influence of the ambient vector field on the spin alignment of ϕ mesons. By determining parameters for different collision energies, the study explains the spin alignment dependence on the transverse momentum of ϕ mesons, pushing the boundaries of heavy-ion collision physics. In conclusion, this research not only challenges established theories but also sets a new frontier in the development of high-energy nuclear spin physics, making significant strides in our understanding of vector meson spin dynamics. #ProfWangQun #Particlephysics #Mesons #QuarkInteraction #Goldnuclei #Dr #PhD #sciencebliss #Linkedintheplace #onepostaday #Newseries #proudhappymom #WIT #womenintechnology.

It gives me immense joy to share with you all a major part of my PhD research at KU Leuven - Department of Physics and Astronomy in our recently published paper titled "Influence of the Interface on the Electric Control of the Magnetization Direction in Fe/PMN-PT Magnetoelectric Heterostructures" in ACS Applied Electronic Materials 🥂. This work investigates the interface of an artificial magnetoelectric heterostructure constituting a ferromagnetic film of Fe deposited on a ferroelectric PMN-PT substrate. We used a probe layer approach to deposit a 57Fe probe layer at and away from the Fe/PMN-PT interface, in Sample INT and Sample MID, respectively. The 57Fe probe layer acts as a local spy 🕵♀️ sitting at these specific depths within the Fe film. Its chemical and magnetic properties can be probed using isotope-specific techniques like that of Nuclear Forward Scattering (NFS) of synchrotron radiation, which we conducted at DESY. In this way, high site selectivity of the interface was achieved which can be further distinguished from regions away from it. Very interesting behavior of the two regions followed which can be found in the article online at https://lnkd.in/eBd32zr4 😄 #Science #Research #Publication #Magnetoelectric #Multiferroic #Interfaces
