Aurorae on Jupiter’s Largest Moons Today, scientists have announced the discovery of aurorae on two of Jupiter’s largest moons, Ganymede and Europa. These aurorae, or northern and southern lights, are created when charged particles in the atmosphere interact with the magnetic field of the moon. The findings were made using data collected by the Hubble Space Telescope and the Juno spacecraft. “This is an exciting discovery,” said lead researcher Dr. Amy Miller, “It shows that even the outermost moons of the Solar System can have some of the same properties as the Earth.

Scientists have made a breakthrough discovery in the field of quantum physics: a new phase of composite fermions! These composite fermions are a combination of two or more particles that form a single entity, and were first theorized in the 1980s. Now, scientists from the Institute of Physics at the University of Amsterdam have discovered a new phase of composite fermions that could open up new possibilities in quantum computing. The team used a special device, called a quantum point contact, to probe the behavior of composite fermions and found that they exhibit a new phase, which is distinct from the usual “Fermi liquid” state.

Recently, a team of researchers from the Institute of Physics and Chemistry of Materials of Strasbourg (IPCMS) conducted an experiment that revealed a new way of probing the equilibrium of a system. This study explored the concept of “transient eternal” equilibrium - a state of equilibrium that does not require a constant external force to maintain the balance of the system. To do this, the team used an “ramping protocol,” which involves gradually changing the parameters of the system so that the system is able to explore different local equilibria.
