A new car is a scary commodity and now a brazen thief in North Queensland has been eyeing some of the valuables available. Key points: Chevrolet Silverado, Dodge Ram stolen from Mackay’s car yard The waiting time for a new car is now an average of six months The Motor Traders Association says new cars come with fewer options to reduce waiting times The burglar used a grinder to punch a hole in the fence of the new car storage area in Mackay on Monday night and then broke into the office lock safe, retrieving 25 sets of keys. They then broke down the front gate on the cars that had already been sold, including the high-end Chevrolet Silverado that had been ordered back. New Pioneer Motors Managing Director Keith Callinan said the attack was devastating. “That’s the really, really sad part about it … it’s not like we can go and get another one and give it to him,” she said. “There is nothing and there is no way we can help.” The Silverado has since been found dumped in the long grass in

The dark matter field of dark photons transforms into photons in a layered dielectric target. These photons are focused by the lens onto a small, low-noise SNSPD detector. The light emitted from the stack is approximately uniform except for a small region in the center where the mirror is absent. Credit: Chiles et al. Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and the Perimeter Institute recently set new limits on dark photons, which are hypothetical particles and well-known candidates for dark matter. Their findings, presented in a paper published in Physical Review Letter This was achieved using the new superconducting nanowire single-photon detector (SNSPD) they developed. “There is close collaboration between our research groups at NIST and MIT, run by Dr. Sae Woo Nam and Prof. Karl Berggren, respectively,” Jeff Chiles, one of the researchers who carried o
