Dark matter is an elusive type of matter that does not emit, absorb or reflect light, interacting very weakly with ordinary ...

Quantum information theory is a field of study that examines how quantum technologies store and process information. Over the ...

The fifth state of matter—the ultracold Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC)—has been an invaluable tool in unlocking the secrets ...

"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of ...

This device is known as a Josephson junction. It’s the foundational building block of quantum computers and advances of it ...

Ultracold atoms have successfully mimicked a fundamental quantum effect normally found in electronic circuits.

You are watching a long-standing assumption in physics and engineering quietly fall apart. Researchers at Northwestern ...

An experiment with ultracold atoms reveals that a strongly driven quantum system doesn’t always heat up as expected. In daily life, doing work on something over and over usually makes it warmer. You ...

Chinese team is first outside the US to cross key threshold that determines whether practical quantum computers can work ...

Physicists have built a quantum gas that behaves nothing like the substances we are used to, and that is exactly why it is ...

Physicists have identified a new superfluid phase in a class of quantum systems that, until recently, looked too unstable and ...

Physicists have found a way to study the inner workings of Josephson junctions without using electronics at all.
