Quantum mechanics has a reputation that precedes it. Virtually everyone who has bumped up against the quantum realm, whether ...

New developments tackle two of the biggest challenges in plasma-wave acceleration: beam quality and bunch rate.

Quantum sensors have become important tools in low-energy particle physics. Michael Doser explores opportunities to exploit ...

But axions were pushed aside as the WIMPs hypothesis gained more steam. Back-of-the-envelope calculations showed that the ...

We have discovered legions of strange particles that seem to only have a ghostly existence inside materials. Even so, they ...

Imagine detecting a single trillionth of a gram of a molecule—like an amino acid—using just electricity and a chip smaller than your fingernail. That’s the power of a new quantum-enabled biosensor ...

Don’t tell anyone, but we have a soft spot for brainy but hilarious humor. When you take genuinely funny content and then add ...

Researchers successfully freeze light into a supersolid, a groundbreaking discovery with potential applications in quantum computing and energy transport.

From living matter to molecules to elementary particles, the world is made of “chiral” objects that differ from their ...

Engineers have harnessed quantum physics to detect the presence of biomolecules without the need for an external light source ...
