Researchers at Delft University of Technology have, for the first time, directly observed the magnetic nucleus of a single atom switching in real time. Using a scanning tunneling microscope (STM), the team read out the nuclear spin through the atom's electrons and discovered that the spin remained stable for several seconds, far longer than expected. The results, reported in Nature Communication

A research team at Pusan National University has unveiled a self-deploying composite material that could transform the design of robotics, aerospace systems, and adaptive structures. The breakthrough relies on a multi-resin dispensing technique for fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) that combines rigid and flexible epoxy resins, allowing selective tuning of structural rigidity within a single piec
