SLAC researchers find proof of altermagnetism, a new magnetic phase
The team is the first to directly observe a unique property in an altermagnetic candidate material, key evidence of a new phase of magnetism.

The Right Pointing Arrow spins 180° and it still points to the right. Only in a mirror will it point left (and only to the left). An incredible ambiguous object illusion by mathematician Kokichi Sugihara of Meiji University in Japan. [📹 physicsfun]

The Butterfly Mendocino Motor by Semyon Nazarov is the simplest version of this kind of motor with only two photovoltaic cells mounted with care to ensure precision balance. This motor will spin quietly to high RPMs on any sunlit windowsill. [📹 physicsfun]

Ever wondered why facing mirrors create an endless hall of reflections? There's a surprisingly simple formula behind it — and a ray-optics simulator lets you watch the light bounce back and forth in real time 🪞

I think I found a glitch in time 💀

Bro got TNT’d.
So I rewound time and did it again.
And again.
And again. 😂

Physics! Fun: where you control the laws of physics…
and apparently time too.

3月に米国の著名な素粒子物理学者が趣味のページで紹介してくれたおかげで、毎月、チョロチョロと売れていたボールペンが、8月は、かなり出て(といっても私が勢いでガジットを買っちゃうというお小遣いレベル)まだ余韻が。
今日は、ドイツ、オランダ、韓国、ドイツへ出荷。

PhysicsFun on IG posted this brain-tickling demonstration of a phenomenon called BIREFRINGENCE.

The "magic" that makes it work:
- 2 linear polarizing filters at 90 degree angles to each other, each on their own stand.
- A transparent plastic sheet covered in cellophane tape.

Let's talk about it.
