Effective energy landscape for circular skyrmion breathing modes, Eq. (27), with B=0.45, highlighting the distinct basin, bowl and horn energy partitioned by the constant saddle energy curve (shown in white). Inset: a cut through η=0 and η=π.

Dr. Ralf Rapp Dr. Ralf Rapp discusses the origin of 98% of the visible mass in the universe in a recent article in Nature Physics. This mass was generated when a hot plasma of quarks and gluons condensed into hadrons in the early Universe. Calculations by Dr. Rapp and collaborators found that the mass of […]
An international team of astronomers that includes Texas A&M University’s Benjamin Boizelle and Jonelle Walsh has obtained the clearest view to date of cold gas rotation around a supermassive black hole. Using the National Radio Astronomy Observatory’s Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) — a huge, highly sophisticated radio telescope array situated at an altitude of […]
