Electrons are usually described as particles, but in a rare quantum material, that picture completely breaks down ...
Measuring the world precisely is much harder than it sounds. At very small scales, ...
A team of physicists has reimagined one of science’s most iconic experiments—but in the dimension of time. Researchers at Imperial College London have taken the classic double-slit test and turned it ...
Quantum materials can behave in surprising ways when many tiny spins act together, producing effects that don’t exist in ...
A hundred years ago, quantum mechanics was a radical theory that baffled even the brightest minds. Today, it's the backbone ...
Quantum mechanics has always carried a quiet tension. At its core, the theory allows particles to exist in many states at ...
A team of theoretical researchers used thermal effective theory to demonstrate that quantum entanglement follows universal rules across all dimensions. Their study was published online on August 5, in ...
Experiments reveal that metallic nanoparticles thousands of atoms wide can exist in quantum superposition, providing a ...
When scientists repeatedly drove a strongly interacting quantum system with laser “kicks,” they expected it to heat up and grow chaotic. Instead, the atoms abruptly stopped absorbing energy and locked ...
Batteries could charge up by relying on a quantum effect known as indefinite causal order, whereby the laws of cause and effect are scrambled and power can move through the system quicker. When you ...
