Turkish astronomers have inspected GLEAM-XJ162759.5–523504.3—a recently discovered pulsar with a relatively long spin period. Results of the study, published February 14 on the arXiv pre-print repository, deliver important ...
Microscopic aspects of ferroelectricity are canonically related to polar atomic displacements that break inversion symmetry of the crystal, leading to a non-zero net electric dipole moment. However, there is a special class ...
