Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr had an ongoing rivalry about the true nature of quantum mechanics, and came up with a thought ...

A team from the Faculty of Physics and the Center for Quantum Optical Technologies at the Center of New Technologies, ...

Physicists have just upped their ante: Not only have they split atoms but, even trickier, they've put them back together. Their secret? Quantum physics. A team of scientists was able to "split" an ...

Most people know that you can't see atoms... or can you? With this special microscope, scientists actually can! In the late ...

Quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, have the potential of ...

Optical microscopes can help us see the microscopic world, but to use them to examine individual atoms is like measuring an ant with a measuring tape. An atom is way too smaller as compared to the ...

A subtle timing flash may expose the Unruh effect. The approach ties ordinary lab tools to deep quantum physics. Researchers ...

This calculated diffraction image shows how forked diffraction gratings shape the atoms' wave function into a vortex. (Courtesy: Science/AAAS) A wave-like property previously only seen in beams of ...

This giant greedy atom can help scientists probe the reaches of ultracold atom physics. The space between an atom's nucleus and electron is usually barren. But, when an electron's orbit sits ...

A radical new theory begins with a central claim: consciousness is the fundamental field of reality; time, space, and matter ...
