Two RIKEN physicists have established new theoretical limits for experimentally measurable quantities by viewing solids through a lens of quantum geometry. Their results shed light both on the physics ...

Famously, at the quantum scale, particles can be in multiple possible locations at once. A particle’s state spreads out like a wave, peaking where the particle is likely to be found. When you measure ...

The usual approach to studying a solid in physics is to consider all the interactions acting between its atoms or molecules and then use the laws of quantum mechanics to determine the solid’s ...
