Scientists have demonstrated that atoms can exhibit wave-like behavior, challenging long-held assumptions that experiments of this nature were impossible and opening new doors in quantum physics. The ...

You can say the universe has a split personality. Or better said, our physical models of the universe are the ones fractured. On the grand scale of stars and galaxies, gravity rules. Albert Einstein’s ...

Everything we can see and touch, and quite a lot that we can’t as well, is made of tiny particles called atoms. Some substances, like particles of this iron, contain only one kind of atom. Iron is an ...

Scientists have directly watched angular momentum move through a crystal for the very first time — and discovered a bizarre twist along the way. Using ultra-powerful terahertz laser pulses, ...

Of all the possible ways for the universe to end, the one that is the most concerning is known as False Vacuum Decay. While the others are a problem for the far future, this one could be for the here ...

Cold atom experiments are among the most powerful and precise ways of investigating and measuring the universe and exploring the quantum world. By trapping atoms and exploiting their quantum ...
