Researchers develop a way to observe spin in a portion of a cell cycle

(Phys.org)--A team of researchers working in China has developed a technique that allowed them to observe spin in a portion of a cell cycle. In their paper published in the journal Science, the team describes their technique, how it can be used and where they plan to go next. Phillip Hemmer and Carmen Gomes, with Texas A&M University offer a Perspective piece on the work done by the team in China in the same journal issue.
