Ideology helped the Soviet intelligence for recruiting foreign citizens

The reason why Soviet intelligence was so effective was that it was an ideological organization. So the Soviet intelligence used socialism as the tool for recruiting traitors from the "hostile organizations" like the CIA and MI6 (or SIS: Secret Intelligence Service). The main purpose of those recruitments of the foreign citizens was to motivate them to take a job in MI6 or department of defense and then start to send the information to the Soviet foreign intelligence. The problem in intelligence work is confirming the data.

There are millions of people who want to fall governments by using CIA or Russian Intelligence. And there are millions of people who want that the USA or Russia would fight for them against their neighbors.

The most well-known of those cases was the "Cambridge Five", where five British Citizens, Anthony Blunt(1907-1983), Guy Burgess(1911-1963), John Cairncross (1913-1995), Donald MacLean (1913-1983), Harold "Kim" Philby (1912-1988), worked for Soviet intelligence. When we are thinking that method, where some Marxist-Leninist turns to spy for foreign intelligence, we must say that those people are feeling "special or strong burn of ideology in their mind".

If the traitor would be uncovered, that thing caused a long time in jail or the person must move to the Soviet Union. The thing was that when the people of "Cambridge Five" were recruited, the Soviet Union was not known as it is known now. Some people believed that it was "paradise for workers". And they had a strong belief in their ideology. The problem with this kind of method of intelligence is to confirm the information that the people would send to their employers.

The problem with the traitors in the spy game is that those people can tell that they are contacted by foreign intelligence. Or their ideology can change for some reason. The ideological spying for another country is not the thing, that is quite common.

The thing that caused recruitments to Soviet Intelligence during the Second World War was the persecution and humiliation, what Nazis made to suspected communists, and after WWII some ex-nazis were blackmailed to work as informers for the intelligence. Also in cases like Cambridge Five, Soviet intelligence could threaten those people to uncover their work for them if they would not cooperate with the KGB or GRU.

In the HUMINT (Human Intelligence) what is another term to use spies to get the information is that the spies can fake the data, what they can send to the intelligence. Sometimes double-agent or "counter-intelligence operators" would send faked documents to foreign intelligence, which consists of data of the aircraft and missiles, which cannot even work.

In the worst case, the "traitor" would just write the "documents" themselves at their home, and then send them to the foreign intelligence. In those documents, the double-agent could name the head of the KGB along with the commander of strategic missile forces that could be named as the CIA operatives.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low. The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away. When the box is filled with quantum gas and som

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field. An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate. AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru
