Anomalous quantum oscillations reveal new physics in a topological insulator
A study has been published in Nature Communications that identifies an unusual regime of quantum oscillations in a three-dimensional topological insulator. The results show that, when subjected to temperatures near absolute zero and extreme magnetic fields, electrons in the material zirconium pentatelluride (ZrTeâ‚…) exhibit behavior that deviates from the pattern predicted by conventional theory.Quantum Physics
