The way time ticks forward in our universe has long stumped physicists. Now, a new set of tools from entangled atoms to black ...

Columnist Natalie Wolchover checks in with particle physicists more than a decade after the field entered a profound crisis.

A record-breaking experiment shows that a cluster of thousands of atoms can act like a wave as well as a particle ...

Cosmology and quantum physics both offer tantalizing possibilities that we inhabit just one reality among many. But testing ...

When quantum spins interact, they can produce collective behaviors that defy long-standing expectations. Researchers have now shown that the Kondo effect behaves very differently depending on spin ...

Researchers from the University of Vienna and the University of Duisburg-Essen showed that metallic ...

Scientists have created 3D printed surfaces featuring intricate textures that can be used to bounce unwanted gas particles away from quantum sensors, allowing useful particles like atoms to be ...

By bringing the long-standing and opposing views of quantum mechanics together to form a single cohesive theory, a research ...

Electrons are usually described as particles, but in a rare quantum material, that picture completely breaks down ...

Quantum physics overturned classical ideas by showing that matter behaves very differently at the ...

“Positronium is the simplest atom composed of equal-mass constituents, and until it self-annihilates, it behaves as a neutral ...

Scientists have shown that it may be possible to transform materials simply by triggering internal quantum ripples rather ...
