A cloud of helium atoms split, scattered and fell under gravity, yet still behaved as if its parts were linked. That is the ...

Two independent research teams have each demonstrated collisional quantum gates using fermionic atoms: a long-sought ...

A team of physicists has shown that pairs of helium atoms, chilled to near absolute zero and launched into each other, can ...

For the first time, scientists have observed quantum entanglement in the momentum of massive particles. The result, decades ...

But last year, scientists demonstrated that quantum systems don’t always follow those patterns, finding a quantum gas that ...

Researchers in the United States have proposed a completely new kind of laser—one that ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...

Scientists reveal how pairs interact in superconductors and discover an unexpected quantum pattern that challenges current ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Matter gets weird at the quantum scale, and among the oddities is the Efimov effect, a state in which the attractive forces between three or more atoms bind them together, even ...

According to our current understanding of the universe, quarks are fundamental, point-like particles: basic building blocks ...

A part of Rutherford’s scattering experiments, this particular experiment involved shooting alpha particles at a piece of gold foil with the source, foil, and detector placed in a vacuum vessel.

Analysis revealed that in acetone, adsorbed gold atoms were mostly isolated particles. The researchers suggest that this is ...
