Significant questions regarding turbulence in quantum fluids, such as superfluid helium, remain unanswered owing to the inability to directly probe the local velocity in a manner quite common in the study of classical fluid turbulence. Using a novel visualization technique to measure the local...

The nuclear fuel cycle is the series of industrial processes that support the production of electricity in nuclear power reactors.  While the United States currently practices the ‘open’ fuel cycle in which used uranium fuel is not reprocessed or recycled, ‘closed’ fuel cycles...

Dilute magnetic materials that are both random and “frustrated” possess a remarkable “spin glass” phase.  Though the materials are quite disordered, and exhibit a rather dull phase diagram, there exists an internal “ultrametric” order that has startling consequences. ...

In the early 1950’s Purcell and Ramsey hypothesized that the electron might have an CP-violating electric dipole moment proportional to its spin.  This hypothesis set in motion a hunt for the electron’s electric dipole moment (e-EDM) that is still ongoing.  The value of such an e-EDM divided...
