At the smallest scales of matter, nature behaves in ways that feel almost counterintuitive. Individual particles follow ...

US physicists have shed light on a long-standing mystery after they captured rare experimental ...

The CMS and ATLAS experiments recently detected quantum entanglement between top quarks in high-energy collisions at the LHC. What does that mean? Quantum entanglement links subatomic particles in a ...

Researchers have experimentally recreated another fundamental theoretical model from quantum physics, which goes back to the Nobel Prize laureate Werner Heisenberg. The basis for the successful ...

Operating at room temperature, this nanoscale device leverages silicon photonics to achieve high-performance spin control, ...

Scientists have demonstrated a new method for measuring how long ultrashort events like quantum tunneling to occur at quantum scale time.

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 ...

The key feature of spintronic devices is their ability to use spin currents to transfer momentum, enabling low-energy, high-speed storage and logical signal control. These devices are usually ...

Time may feel smooth and continuous, but at the quantum level it behaves very differently. Physicists have now found a way to measure how long ultrafast quantum events actually last, without relying ...

Olival Freire Jr is a professor of physics and the history of physics at the Federal University of Bahia, Brazil. What makes matter stable? Why are atoms as they are? Why do different materials vary ...

EPFL physicists have found a way to measure the time involved in quantum events and found it depends on the symmetry of the material. "The concept of time has troubled philosophers and physicists for ...

Physicists have now managed to track the passage of time inside a quantum event without using anything that looks like a ...
