Forscher am Max-Planck-Institut für Quantenoptik haben eine neuartige Kühltechnik für molekulare Gase entwickelt, die es ermöglicht, polare Moleküle bis auf wenige Nanokelvin zu kühlen. Der Trick des Teams in Garching, um diese Hürde zu überwinden, basiert auf einem rotierenden Mikrowellenfeld. Es hilft, die Stöße zwischen den Molekülen während des Abkühlens durch einen energetischen Schutzschirm zu stabilisieren. Den Max-Planck-Forschern gelang es auf diese Weise, ein Gas aus Natrium-Kalium-Molekülen bis auf 21 milliardstel Grad über dem absoluten Nullpunkt abzukühlen....

Die hohe Inflationsrate in Österreich macht vielen zu schaffen. Mit 8,7 % war sie im Juni so hoch wie seit 47 Jahren nicht mehr. Dem begegnet die Regierung mit einem milliardenschweren Anti-Inflationspaket, das die Bürgerinnen und Bürger mit Einmalzahlungen und langfristigen Einsparungen sofort entlasten soll. Die ersten Schritte werden in den kommenden Wochen unternommen. „Das aktuelle dritte Anti-Inflationspaket bringt 28 Milliarden Euro an wirtschaftlicher Entlastung. Im Sommer werden wir in einem ersten Schritt die am stärksten Betroffenen entlasten: 300 Euro pro Person, Familien profitieren von der höchsten Familienbeihilfe....

After achieving up to 1% containment on Saturday, crews have now withdrawn without containment. “The Yreka Police Department has issued an Evacuation Order for the area west of Fairchild Street and Shasta Street to include Oakridge Mobile Estates,” the forest service announced Saturday night....

But a weapons transfer scheme designed to show the virtues of solidarity, while ensuring that Ukraine quickly got the weapons it needed and could operate, is becoming more of a bone of contention as allies blame each other for its failure to deliver. Germany, for which the scheme meant a way to avoid provoking Russia unnecessarily by supplying tanks and armoured vehicles directly to Ukraine, admitted this week that despite protracted talks with Poland, Slovenia, Slovakia, Greece and the Czech Republic, it has yet to sign a contract with any of them....

A U-turn on nuclear power would mark a big departure in German energy policy. It would be a particularly bitter pill for the Greens, a pillar of chancellor Olaf Scholz’s coalition government with roots in the country’s anti-nuclear movement. A person close to the Greens leadership said the party had come to the conclusion that “all options should be on the table” in the event of an energy crunch. One of those options might be to extend the life of the Isar 2 nuclear station in Bavaria beyond its shutdown date of December 31....

Comment House Democrats have delayed consideration of a package of public safety bills that would ban assault weapons, exposing fault lines within the caucus and dampening the desire of many members to leave Washington with new legislative victories to spur voter turnout as they hit the campaign trail. Vulnerable members in swing districts, known as front-liners, who are most at risk of losing their seats in midterm elections, have spent the past few weeks pushing leaders to pass legislation that would help fund local law enforcement to deal with of GOP attacks that Democrats are soft on crime — an argument that likely cost the party seats in 2020 and created animosity among different factions of the party....

«La force de dissuasion nucléaire de notre pays est également prête à mobiliser sa puissance absolue de manière fiable, précise et rapide, conformément à sa mission», a déclaré Kim Jong Un dans un discours prononcé mercredi, selon l’agence officielle Korean Central News Agency de Pyongyang.

The Illinois Republican, who has been an outspoken and frequent critic of former President Trump, told CNN anchor Anderson Cooper that he doesn’t “trust anything Kevin McCarthy says.” “I mean, look, I don’t trust anything Kevin McCarthy says, I’ll be honest with you,” Kinzinger said, according to CNN footage on Mediaite. The comment by Kinzinger, one of two Republicans serving on the House committee investigating the January 6, 2021 riot, comes hours after McCarthy told reporters during a news conference that he did not recall speaking with Hutchinson on the 6 January about the possibility Trump comes to Capitol Hill during the election certification process....
