An international team of physicists has uncovered a subtle but important twist in how “memory” works in quantum systems.

Researchers at Rice University report that cerium magnesium hexalluminate, a compound with the formula CeMgAl11O19, is not the quantum spin liquid it was long believed to be. In a peer-reviewed study ...

An international team of scientists from IBM, The University of Manchester, Oxford University, ETH Zurich, EPFL and the University of Regensburg have created and characterized a molecule unlike any ...

Rydberg atoms are atoms with one or more outer electrons excited to very high energy levels, which interact very strongly with each other. These atoms are widely used to run quantum simulations and ...

Purdue University has appointed Michael Manfra as its chief quantum officer, overseeing quantum initiatives and new degree ...

Light does not “think” in any human sense. Still, under the right conditions, it can behave in a way that looks uncannily ...

A newly derived “q-desic” equation suggests that quantum effects may subtly alter particle trajectories across the universe.

Fluids moving through pipes lose energy to friction along the walls. Collisions, defects, and random motion steadily break ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. John Clarke, Michel H Devoret and John M. Martinis are announced this year's Nobel Prize winners in Physics, by the Royal Swedish ...

Physicists at TU Wien have created an ultracold quantum gas where both energy and mass flow without any measurable loss, a result that defies the standard expectation that interacting quantum systems ...

Noakes emphasized that all high-tech firms have three main needs: talent, money and ideas. In fact, as he explained, ...
