Using a newly developed technique, scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics (MPIK) in Heidelberg have measured the very small difference in the magnetic properties of two isotopes of ...

Adapting a detector developed for space X-ray observation, researchers have successfully verify strong-field quantum electrodynamics with exotic atoms. An international collaboration of researchers, ...

Spin glasses are physical systems in which the small magnetic moments of particles (i.e., spins) interact with each other in a random way. These random interactions between spins make it impossible ...

Quantum electrodynamics, a school of quantum mechanics, is the best-tested theory in physics. It describes all electrical and magnetic interactions of light and matter. In the macroscopic world, ...
