For the first time, physicists have successfully imaged spiral magnetic ordering in a multiferroic material.

Physicists from the University of Basel have developed a memory that can store photons. These quantum particles travel at the speed of light and are thus suitable for high-speed data transfer.

Children more often sleep poorly if their mothers suffer from insomnia symptoms. This report researchers from the University of Basel and the University of Warwick in the journal Sleep Medicine based on a study with nearly 200 school-aged children and their parents.

Scientists from the University of Basel's Department of Physics and the Swiss Nanoscience Institute have succeeded in dramatically improving the quality of individual photons generated by a quantum system.

Nuclear pore complexes are tiny channels where the exchange of substances between the cell nucleus and the cytoplasm takes place.

Individuals with severe overweight have an inhibited sense of satiation - they release fewer satiety hormones than people of normal weight.
