Physics to understand the Ukrainian conflict
May 25, 2022
Two researchers from IFISC (UIB-CSIC) have analyzed the existence of "the two Ukranias" using statistical physics tools: the data-based evidence does not support this hypothesis.Massimiliano Zanin and Johann Martinez, researchers at IFISC (UIB-CSIC), have analyzed the Ukrainian conflict from ...
Boosting the efficiency of quantum heat engines
May 6, 2022
A team of researchers
from IFISC (UIB-CSIC) has demonstrated that a quantum chiral conductor driven
by an alternating current voltage can operate with efficiencies much higher
than the hitherto insurmountable Carnot limit. In the paper, published in
Nature Communications, the ...

Capturing the diversity of multilingual societies
Jan. 11, 2022
Researchers from IFISC (UIB-CSIC) have found that language coexistence is possible in multilingual societies when learning the endangered language is facilitated and when bilinguals show a preference for its use. These findings are published in the latest issue of Physical ...
In quantum mechanics, not even time flows as you might expect
Nov. 24, 2021
A team of physicists at the Universities of Vienna, Bristol, IFISC and the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI-Vienna) has shown how quantum systems can simultaneously evolve along two opposite time arrows (forward and backward in time). The ...
