World’s smallest snake rediscovered in Barbados after 20-year absence
“I was making a joke and in my head I said, ‘I smell a threadsnake,'” Justin Springer, Caribbean program officer for the NGO Re:wild, recalled. “I just had a feeling, but I couldn’t be sure because we turned over a lot of rocks before that and we saw nothing.” Springer’s intuition proved correct when his […]

Orbital chiral lasing in twisted bilayer metasurfaces
Chirality is a fundamental concept in physics that underpins various phenomena in nonlinear optics, quantum physics, and topological photonics. Although the spin of a photon naturally brings chirality, orbital angular momentum can also become chirally active in the structures with a broken mirror symmetry. Here, we observe orbital chiral lasing from a twisted bilayer photonic structure leveraging its inherent structural chirality. Specifically, we design and fabricate a Moire-type optical struc…

If this mechanism is indeed involved in the origin of life, then a form of life is likely to be present on innumerable habitable planets throughout the universe. Which is expected, of course, and will no-doubt be found at some point.
