Trying to controvert a seemingly incontrovertible law is a hard job. And Stefan Hell discovered just how hard when he attempted to thwart the resolution limit of optical microscopes.

Studying the formation of planets close to their host stars by observations has been extremely challenging so far. As part of an international collaboration, scientists of the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy in Heidelberg, Germany, have employed a new instrument called MATISSE which has now uncovered evidence for a vortex at the inner rim of a planet-forming disk around a young star. It appears to move on an orbit around its star similar to Mercury’s orbit around the Sun. Astronomers think such vortices are sites where small particles converge and grow to form planets’ building blocks. MPIA contributed considerably to building MATISSE, an infrared imager for ESO’s Very Large Telescope Interferometer.

In conflicts that occur simultaneously within and between groups, who would, when and why put aside their own interest to stand up for the interest of the social group he or she belongs to? Recent findings from game theoretical research allow a better understanding of such situations and could help speed up the resolution of conflicts.

With the Digital Markets Act, the EU Commission wants to limit the market power of tech giants such as Google, Apple, Facebook/Meta, Amazon or Microsoft and protect competition in the European market. In an interview, Heiko Richter, Senior Research Fellow for Digitalization and Competition Law at the Max Planck Institute for Innovation and Competition explains the goals of the planned regulation, which is currently being negotiated.
