Physicists measure and control electron release from metals in the attosecond range. By superimposing two laser fields of different strengths and frequency, the electron emission…
New findings from Jefferson Laboratory shed light on the process of forming strange matter from ordinary matter. Nuclear physicists have made a groundbreaking discovery through…
Scientists at the University of Rochester have developed a method that overcomes the limitations of electron spin resonance. Quantum science holds the potential to transform…
Have you ever wondered why your computer and other electronic devices sometimes perform quickly and other times slowly? It all boils down to the speed…
Electron spins reflect chiral molecules without the mirror. The control of the chirality of molecules and crystals is crucial in various areas of research such…
Pulse radiolysis experiments demonstrate how unpaired electrons at one end of a molecule can initiate chemistry at ‘distant’ locations. Researchers at the Brookhaven National Laboratory…
A tenfold increase in electron holography sensitivity exposes the net charge in a single platinum nanoparticle with a precision of just one electron. If you…
Long predicted but never observed before, this fluid-like electron behavior could be leveraged for efficient low-power next-generation electronics. Water molecules, although being distinct particles, flow…
Rice University lab manipulates ultracold Rydberg atoms to mimic quantum interactions. Our spatial sense doesn’t extend beyond the familiar three dimensions, but that doesn’t stop…
Researchers at Aalto University propose method of transducing frequency to power. The world’s most commonly used system of measurement, the International System of Units (SI),…
Leveraging electron spin adds a new dimension to data encoding. Remember flip-phones? Our smartphones may one day look just as obsolete thanks to spintronics, an…
A Lancaster physicist has proposed a radical solution to the question of how a charged particle, such as an electron, responded to its own electromagnetic…
Early-career nuclear physicists show that a better understanding of how neutrinos interact with matter is needed to make the most of upcoming experiments. Neutrinos may…
Breakthrough demonstrates solid state of electrons predicted more than 90 years ago. More than 90 years ago, physicist Eugene Wigner predicted that at low densities…
The findings confirm theoretical predictions that certain metallic specimens could support an electron-phonon liquid phase. A team of researchers from Boston College has created a…
Chemists investigate the interactions of metal complexes and light. When a molecule is hit by light, in many cases a so-called “photoinduced” reaction is initiated….
MIT researchers are working to develop an electron-cloaking material that would “hide” particles from passing electrons, possibly leading to more efficient thermoelectric devices and new…
A new paper from David Mazziotti, a professor in chemistry at the University of Chicago, solves what specialists call the “N-representability problem,” how to compute…
