The ultimate degree of control for engineering would be the ability to create and manipulate materials at the most basic level, fabricating devices atom by…
For the first time, Yale physicists have directly observed quantum behavior in the vibrations of a liquid body. A great deal of ongoing research is…
A new way of measuring atomic-scale magnetic fields with great precision, not only up and down but sideways as well, has been developed by researchers…
Researchers from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology teamed up with colleagues from the U.S. and Switzerland and returned the state of a quantum…
Researchers at the Joint Quantum Institute have implemented an experimental test for quantum scrambling, a chaotic shuffling of the information stored among a collection of…
One of the key concepts in quantum physics is entanglement, in which two or more quantum systems become so inextricably linked that their collective state…
By bombarding an ultrathin semiconductor sandwich with powerful laser pulses, physicists at the University of California, Riverside, have created the first “electron liquid” at room…
An old thought experiment now appears in a new light. In 1935 Erwin Schrödinger formulated a thought experiment designed to capture the paradoxical nature of…
The universe consists of matter. Matter is everything we see around us. That’s strange – but why? In theory, there should also be large amounts…
JILA researchers have measured hundreds of individual quantum energy levels in the buckyball, a spherical cage of 60 carbon atoms. It’s the largest molecule that…
Black holes are known for their voracious appetites, binging on matter with such ferocity that not even light can escape once it’s swallowed up. Less…
Assistant professor of physics Laura Newburgh is part of a Canadian-led experiment that has detected the second-known example of a repeating fast radio burst (FRB)…
For the first time, researchers from MIT and elsewhere have recorded the “temporal coherence” of a graphene qubit — that is, how long it can…
Kazan University physicists created a refined simulation of a joint reception area of meteor radio reflections. The paper appeared in IEEE Transactions on Antennas and…
When stars collapse, they can create black holes, which are everywhere throughout the universe and therefore important to be studied. Black holes are mysterious objects…
In the world of quantum computing, interaction is everything. For computers to work at all, bits — the ones and zeros that make up digital…
Researchers have created tiny droplets of the ultra-hot matter that once filled the early universe, forming three distinct shapes and sizes: circles, ellipses, and triangles….
