Electric field reverses phonon chirality and spin direction in ferroelectric crystal
WorldPing
Chiral phonons are groups of atoms that move in a circular direction when excited by an energy source, such as heat. As the phonons move through a material, they propagate that circular motion, or angular momentum, through the material.
This is a short WorldPing brief. The full report was published by Phys.org.
Dark matter's existence is all but certain—astronomers believe it makes up about a quarter of the universe's total energy content—yet its true identity has eluded us for decades.

Higgsfield rankled some in the film industry in the spring with its showcase of its completely AI-generated “Hell Grind,” so almost in response, it’s brought some humans in the mix – in a sense.
