A new unified theory connects two fundamental domains of modern quantum physics: It joins two opposite views of how a single ...

Scientists developed a theory linking mobile and static behaviors of a particle in a Fermi sea, explaining quasiparticles and ...

In an effort to bring together the domains of gravity and quantum theory, Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen proposed a ...

Quantum mechanics is rich with paradoxes and contradictions. It describes a microscopic world in which particles exist in a ...

Let me tell you about my book "Fields and Their Quanta: Making Sense of Quantum Foundations," published last year by Springer. It's technical, but I'll describe it in English. Scientists agree the ...

As we journey from Newton's laws of gravity to Einstein's groundbreaking theory of relativity, and delve into the enigmatic ...

Within our comfortable world of causality we expect that reactions always follow an action and not vice versa. This why the recent chatter in the media about researchers having discovered ‘negative ...

Scientists have discovered a new quantum state of matter that connects two significant areas of physics, potentially leading ...

The University of Manchester is hosting 80 leading researchers from the UK, Europe, Asia and the US for an international ...

The physics department at UC Santa Barbara houses its own powerful particle accelerator that accelerates electrons to 99.4% of the speed of light: The Sherwin Group’s ability to produce short and ...

A quantum state of matter has appeared in a material where physicists thought it would be impossible, forcing a rethink on ...

Technological devices are getting ever smaller, but as they approach the scale at which quantum physics matters, our understanding of how they interact with their environment evaporates. James Millen ...
