ALT An array of sensors appear as a set of rectangles within a gold-colored metal frame.

ALT Illustration of a black hole viewed head-on. A bright, warped ring of light from the surrounding accretion disk encircles a dark central region. Overlaid on the black interior is a red grid curving across a spherical shape, with circular patterns at opposite sides, representing the geometry of spacetime near the singularity.
ALT Illustration of two glowing, blurred objects approaching one another inside a black hole. The objects appear near the center of a red curved spacetime grid overlaid on the dark interior, suggesting two observers falling toward the singularity from different angular directions. A distorted ring of light surrounds the black hole.
ALT Illustration showing bright, glowing trajectories converging toward a black hole. Pale yellow arcs sweep inward across a red spacetime grid overlaid on the black interior, depicting paths through curved spacetime. A warped ring of light from the surrounding accretion disk frames the black hole against a star-filled background.
ALT Figure showing the differential phase sensing protocol in three parts. The top schematic shows how the atoms in ensembles are initially in their excited ground states, shown by globes with colorful areas on one of the poles. An entangler is applied, causing each to acquire a distinct phase, shown by horizontal arrows on the globes. Then a joint measurement estimates the differential phase for each. The second schematic shows the target state after the entangling process, which is an entangled Lieb-Mattis state. The last part of the figure shows the Wigner distributions represented by globes with colorful areas and alternating signs of all Dicke-state combinations.
ALT Margaret Murnane and another individual wearing safety goggles engaged in conversation in a lab setting with scientific equipment visible in the foreground.
ALT Diagram showing a coiled phononic subsurface with multiple structural connectivity. There is a central voided beam, shown by a gray vertical bar, that is rotationally locked at the turning junctions. Smaller, darker gray bars extend horizontally to represent an array of branching resonators in the form of small cantilevered beams. At the top of the entire structure is a large blue rectangle with arrows pointing right to show the direction of the flow.
ALT Four researchers, one older and three younger, pose in the lab holding models of a laser cavity.
