A search for axion dark matter, this ambitious endeavor was successfully taken by the "Student Project for an Axion Cavity Experiment" (SPACE) research group of Mehmet Agit, Akgümüs And Nabil Salama at the Institute for Experimental Physics of the University of Hamburg. After more than one year of research and development...

It’s not just sunshine that comes from our nearest star — according to new research by IFIC, DESY and the Cluster of Excellence Quantum Universe at the University of Hamburg, the Sun also emits ultra-weak gravitational waves over an enormous frequency range. These gentle ripples in space and time could one day shed new...

A research team from Hamburg has developed a novel method that allows for time-resolved structural studies of proteins across a wide temperature range. The team reports the new approach, called 5D serial synchrotron crystallography (5D-SSX), in Nature Communications. It enables the collection of temperature-resolved...
