When Quantum Magnets Lose Their Sense of Scale

Scale invariance asks whether the same patterns can govern nature across very different lengths, from microscopic matter to large natural structures. Magnets offer one of the cleanest examples: near a critical point, where order disappears, details of the material fade and universal laws take over.

Towards digital twin of an in-situ experiment: a physics-enhanced machine-learning framework for inverse modelling of mass transport processes

Peng et al., 2026

As a prove of concept for experimental geochemistry, an advanced 3D numerical framework, here and after called Digital Twin (DT), of a diffusion experiment conducted at a synchrotron beamline, has been implemented using....

Compositional and structural controls on Fe(III) trapping in LDH phases

Ban et al., 2026

Understanding Fe incorporation in layered double hydroxide (LDH) phases is important for revealing the steel/cement interface interaction in low carbon cement. In this study, synchrotron-based characterization is....

Pore-scale reactive transport modeling of minerals dissolution and precipitation.

Mahrous et al., 2026

With the aim of identifying the strengths and limitations of current reactive transport models in simulating dissolution-precipitation reactions, this work validates experimentally a newly developed pore-scale model. The model is developed....

Preserving film sound in the cold at the British Film Institute: new evidence for archives

Can magnetic film sound be stored in the cold? A collaboration between the British Film Institute and PSI found no detectable damage in the studied samples and points to a broader future for archives, in which laboratory methods and synchrotron techniques at the Swiss Light Source SLS help guide the preservation of complex audiovisual media.
