by Joni Eronen Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a powerful and versatile tool that is based on the observation of nuclear spin precession in a strong magnetic field. It is widely used in the field of environmental sciences research, such as in determining the three-dimensional structures of molecules as well […]
Each year the Finnish Physical Society awards four early-career presentation prizes at Physics Days. The two best oral and the two best poster presentations receive a certificate and a prize of €200. It was a very difficult year for the evaluators with so many excellent early-career contributions. We thank them […]

by Elvis Pillinen Since the invention of the first laser in the 1960s, researchers have discovered that by mode-locking, optical pulses can be made much shorter, even down to mere femtoseconds. In human perspective, pulse created by a flashlight (millisecond, 10-3 s) is 300 km long, enough to stretch from […]
by Otto Veltheim, University of Helsinki Imagine having an unknown system, a “black box”, which outputs identical copies of an unknown quantum state. Suppose our task is to identify the state. There are multiple attributes, i.e. observables describing it, and measuring just one of them makes the state collapse to […]
