Nobel Prize in Physics is a tribute to the scientists who first discovered quantum behaviors in a macroscopic electrical ...

Nobel Prize winners show how superconducting circuits can exhibit quantum behavior, leading to transformative technologies.

John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret, and John Martinis built an electrical circuit-based oscillator on a microchip.

In January I wrote a piece titled “ 5 Physics Equations Everyone Should Know .” Lots of you weighed in with your own ...

This story uncovers the weird world of eponyms things named after people history forgot. Some names were immortalized through discovery, others through luck, and a few through pure coincidence.

Nobel Prize winners showcase quantum tunnelling in macroscopic circuits, paving the way for quantum computing.

In Hefei, China, physicists switched on a new machine that pushed magnetic fields to record strength. As the device powered ...

New studies of the “platypus of materials” help explain how their atoms arrange themselves into orderly, but nonrepeating, ...

A powerful new AI tool called Diag2Diag is revolutionizing fusion research by filling in missing plasma data with synthetic yet highly detailed information. Developed by Princeton scientists and ...

Cold atoms could also potentially measure much lower vacuum pressures than ion gauges can. The current lowest pressure they’ve reliably measured is around 10 -9 Pa, and NIST scientists are working on ...
