Extremely cold atoms have been nudged to self-magnify their quantum states so they can be imaged in unprecedented detail. This could help researchers better understand what quantum particles do in odd ...
Scientists have made the first experimental observation of matter wave diffraction in a short-lived electron-positron atom.
One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the observation that matter behaves differently at the smallest scales. A key ...
Physicists have proposed a way to extract the internal quantum states of electron wave packets by analyzing how those packets ...
Similar to humans going on journeys of self-discovery, quantum computers are also capable of deepening their understanding of their own foundations. Researchers from Tohoku University and St. Paul's ...
A Majorana fermion is a particle that would be identical to its antiparticle. Such an object has not yet been found. However, ...
Quantum mechanics continues to offer profound insights into the fundamental nature of matter and energy, and the use of special functions plays a critical role in obtaining exact analytical solutions ...
One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the observation that matter behaves differently at the smallest scales. A key ...
Using a highly coherent positronium beam, the researchers observed clear diffraction patterns after transmission through a graphene film, confirming its wave-like behavior. One of the discoveries that ...
