WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — New experimental evidence of a collective behavior of electrons to form "quasiparticles" called "anyons" has been reported by a team of scientists at Purdue University. Anyons ...
If you ask people what a hologram is, they’ll probably describe the 3D light projections of science-fiction films — such as the vision of Princess Leia floating in free space in the 1977 film Star ...
Giant molecules can be in two places at once, thanks to quantum physics. That's something that scientists have long known is theoretically true based on a few facts: Every particle or group of ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Qubits, the units used to encode information in quantum computing, are not all created equal. Some researchers believe that topological qubits, which are tougher and less ...
In materials science, if you can understand the "texture" of a material—how its internal patterns form and shift—you can begin to design how it behaves. That's the focus of the work of Zhenglu Li, ...
Positronium shouldn't last long enough to be interesting. It's an "atom" assembled from an electron and its antimatter twin — ...
Quantum physics once shocked scientists by revealing that particles can behave like waves—and now, that strange behavior has ...
(Inside Science) — One of the strangest things about quantum mechanics is that a particle can act like a wave. In particular, in a double-slit experiment, individual particles that are shot through a ...
With a carefully designed experiment and a handful of tin atoms, University of Tennessee, Knoxville's physicists have found a ...
