Using ultracold atoms and laser light, researchers recreated the behavior of a Josephson junction—an essential component of ...

A long-standing physics mystery has been solved with the discovery of emergent photon-like behavior inside a strange quantum ...

A new theory of "dark photons" attempted to explain a centuries-old experiment in a new way this year, in an effort to change ...

Human behaviour is an enigma that fascinates many scientists. And there has been much discussion over the role of probability in explaining how our minds work.Probability is a mathematical framework d ...

In the past year, two separate experiments in two different materials captured the same confounding scenario: the coexistence ...

For nearly a century, some of the strangest questions in physics have revolved around how quantum objects move, interact and ...

Scientists uncovered a quantum spin liquid, a state of matter that may have applications for quantum information. (Nanowerk News) The blue-green lab-grown crystals look like solid rocks, but their ...

Picture Victorian London, but its skies are filled with airships. Steam-powered robots crowd the streets, mingling with people in top hats and petticoats. That type of retrofuturistic mash-up is the ...

Down at the level of atoms and electrons, quantum physics describes the behavior of the very smallest objects. Solar panels, LED lights, your mobile phone and MRI scanners in hospitals: all of these ...
