![The study of a superconducting/ferroelectric/superconducting structure reveals distinct ferron-polariton and ferron excitations, characterized by parameters [latex]\alpha_{1,2,3} = \{-2.012, 3.608, 1.345\} \times 10^{9} \text{ Nm/C}^{2}[/latex] and [latex]\Omega_{p} = 6.39 \text{ THz}[/latex], demonstrating that the [latex]\delta p_{x}[/latex]-ferron-polariton branches ([latex]\omega_{u,l}[/latex], shown in blue) diverge from the [latex]\delta p_{x}[/latex]-ferron dispersion ([latex]\omega_{1}[/latex], shown in red) as effective wavelength approaches infinity, while the [latex]\delta p_{y,z}[/latex]-ferron frequencies ([latex]\omega_{\pm}[/latex], shown in blue-red dashed curves) remain consistent both with superconducting screening and in the limit of infinite effective wavelength.](https://arxiv.org/html/2602.05473v1/dispersion.png)
Researchers have demonstrated the creation of novel light-matter quasiparticles in layered superconductor/ferroelectric materials, paving the way for exploring quantum phenomena at terahertz frequencies.
The first issue of Captain Marvel: Dark Past, written by Paul Jenkins and illustrated by Lucas Werneck, will be available in stores on April 1st. The story will explore a troubling part of Carol Danvers’ family history and resurfaced memories from her time as Ms. Marvel. A new variant cover by artist J. Scott Campbell perfectly captures this with a striking image of Carol in her classic Ms. Marvel costume – you can see it below!
Peacock recently released a new series based on the 1989 cult classic comedy, The ‘Burbs, on February 8th, shortly after making the original movie available to stream. Like the original starring Tom Hanks, the series explores the anxieties and hidden secrets of suburban life. All eight episodes of the first season are available to watch now, so viewers can binge the entire story right away.
Recent rumors have been confirmed by a new job posting from Naughty Dog. The studio is starting work on a game for multiple platforms, meaning it will likely be released on both PlayStation and PC. The job listing, for a Senior Sound Designer, also specifically asks for experience with multiplayer games, strongly suggesting the new title will have a multiplayer component.
While promoting their new thriller, Crime 101, Chris Hemsworth jokingly addressed the idea of a crossover with Halle Berry’s Storm, dismissing any potential rivalry. He actually expressed regret that Berry wasn’t in his film, Doomsday, and playfully invited her to join future projects, saying, “Everyone wants you in it… You’ve gotta come and just hang out with us. You’ve got to accept it. I’m inviting you.”
Once he returned to the island and resumed his duties, he realized things had changed significantly.
I recently tried out some products from the Ascended Heroes collection and was really happy with the quality of the cards and how fun they are to play. However, getting the rare, highly sought-after cards proved difficult – I still haven’t pulled the beautiful full-art Psyduck! This means those top cards from Ascended Heroes are already selling for high prices online. Here’s a look at the most popular cards from the set and how much they’re currently going for on resale markets.
Look, I’m a big TV watcher, and I’ve seen this happen a lot – shows try to reinvent themselves and it just… doesn’t work. Think about shows like Scrubs or even Westworld – they shifted gears and, in my opinion, went downhill. But every now and then, taking a big swing actually pays off. I’m thinking of a couple of really popular sitcoms from the 2010s, and even one procedural on CBS, where changing things up actually made the show better.
Lately, we’ve seen more and more manga series end or get canceled, as Shonen Jump is now focusing on stories that don’t last as long. Although some popular, long-running manga are still ongoing, it looks like several major franchises – some that have been around for over ten years – are expected to finish up this year. Here are five of the biggest series that are likely to conclude soon.
Charles Martinet revealed his approach for voicing Mario:
