Researchers report a new, highly unusual, structured-light family of 3D topological solitons, the photonic hopfions, where the topological textures and topological numbers can be freely…
A new study at TU Wien has revealed how chaos theory connects quantum theory and thermodynamics, two seemingly separate areas of physics. A single particle…
First-ever observation of quantum interference between dissimilar particles offers new approach for mapping distribution of gluons in atomic nuclei—and potentially more. Nuclear physicists have found…
One potential application: Enhancing the sensitivity of atomic magnetometers used to measure the alpha waves emitted by the human brain. Scientists are increasingly seeking to…
As part of Conversations on the Quantum World, a webinar series hosted by the Caltech Science Exchange, Professor of Theoretical Physics Kathryn Zurek and Professor…
Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon in which the quantum states of two or more objects become correlated, meaning that the state of one object can…
A Peculiar Protected Structure Links Viking Knots With Quantum Vortices A vortex structure that is impervious to decay has been identified through mathematical analysis. In…
Physicists observe wormhole dynamics using a quantum computer in a step toward studying quantum gravity in the lab. For the first time, scientists have developed…
For the first time, physicists have experimentally demonstrated that there is a negative correlation between the two spins of an entangled pair of electrons from…
Bizarre quantum properties of black holes – including their mind-bending ability to have different masses simultaneously – have been confirmed by University of Queensland (UQ)…
In nature, vortices can be found everywhere: Whirling up water can produce swirls. When the atmosphere is stirred up, huge tornadoes can form. This is…
Scientists believe our brains could use quantum computation after taking a concept developed to prove the existence of quantum gravity and adapting it to explore…
A new method for simulating quantum entanglement between interacting particles has been developed by physicists. Physicists are (temporarily) augmenting reality in order to crack the…
A Q&A with Caltech alumnus John Clauser on his first experimental proof of quantum entanglement. When scientists, including Albert Einstein and Erwin Schrödinger, first discovered…
Physicists prove that classical machine learning models can improve predictions about quantum materials. Quantum computers have generated a lot of buzz and for good reason….
Because of quantum physics, quantum materials behave in surprising ways. For instance, they can be superconductors, which can allow electricity to flow with no resistance….
Scientists trained a machine learning tool to capture the physics of electrons moving on a lattice using far fewer equations than would typically be required,…
