A tiny magnet levitates in a trap, unable to rotate freely. Scientists have found a way to protect its quantum 'leakage' through an energy barrier from residual gas interference: just make the magnet almost perfectly round. This discovery promises a breakthrough in creating ultra-sensitive sensors a

In Southampton, the thinnest graphite flake has been turned into an ultrasoft gravitational antenna. Levitating above magnets, it shifts by nanometers under tidal forces, and a laser interferometer converts this into a precise signal. The instrument distinguishes lunar and solar contributions, achie
