In an article published in Communications Physics, researchers from the Université libre de Bruxelles and the Institute for ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind.—Renowned French scientist Alain Aspect, who won the 2022 Nobel Prize for his pathfinding research in quantum physics, will give a lecture on Monday (May 13) at Purdue University ...

For centuries, the concept of consciousness has intrigued philosophers and scientists alike. Often deemed too abstract for ...

An international team of researchers has identified a quantum counterpart to Bayes’ rule. The likelihood you assign to an ...

A new study published in Nature Physics introduces a theory of electron-phonon coupling that is affected by the quantum geometry of the electronic wavefunctions. The movement of electrons in a lattice ...

In 1931, Harvey Elliott White developed a device that traced out the shapes of electron clouds by approximating solutions to ...

P hysicists at MIT have achieved a major feat, capturing a bizarre quantum effect called second sound on film, where heat ripples through matter like a wave instead of spreading gradually. First ...

A rift runs deep through the heart of physics. The general theory of relativity, which describes gravity, clashes with quantum physics. In an effort to seal that physics fissure, untold numbers of ...

Researchers have developed a new quantum version of a 150-year-old thermodynamical thought experiment that could pave the way for the development of quantum heat engines. Mathematicians from the ...

You might say it all started with a spot of hay fever. In June 1925, a young physicist named Werner Heisenberg retreated to the barren island of Helgoland in the North Sea, seeking respite from his ...
