One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the ...
For the first time, physicists have watched a beam of positronium, a short‑lived atom made of an electron and its antimatter ...
“Positronium is the simplest atom composed of equal-mass constituents, and until it self-annihilates, it behaves as a neutral ...
Quantum mechanics describes the unconventional properties of subatomic particles, like their ability to exist in a superposition of multiple states, as popularized by the Schrödinger's cat analogy, ...
Recent advances in quantum science have fostered a refined understanding of quantum trajectories and wave packet dynamics, merging traditional wave function analyses with trajectory‐based ...
A quiet revolution is taking shape in the world of physics, and it doesn’t rely on exotic particles or massive particle colliders. Instead, it begins with something much more familiar—sound.
Extremely cold atoms have been nudged to self-magnify their quantum states so they can be imaged in unprecedented detail. This could help researchers better understand what quantum particles do in odd ...
Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works extremely well in its own domain: Quantum theory explains how atoms and ...
For the first time, researchers from Tokyo University of Science have observed wave-like interference patterns from ...
