Topological insulators could form the basis for revolutionary electronic components. However, as they generally only function ...

A team of researchers from Switzerland and France and theoretical physicists in Canada and the U.S., including Rice University, believe they have found evidence of a theorized quantum phenomenon ...

Theoretical physicists along with an experimental team have found evidence of a quantum spin liquid in a material known as pyrochlore cerium stannate. They achieved this by combining state-of-the-art ...

Chinese researchers used the Oceanlite supercomputer and a custom NNQS model to simulate molecular systems with 120 spin ...

Students and faculty of UC Santa Barbara’s physics department gathered in Corwin Pavilion for the department’s annual Nobel Prize-focused colloquium on Oct. 14. This year’s event was particularly spec ...

Collaboration between experts at National University of Singapore and University of New South Wales (UNSW) Sydney provides long-sought evidence of atomic nuclei displaying quantum behaviour. It has ...

Levitating and spinning diamonds might sound like science fiction, but they’re now part of a bold effort to study the foundations of the universe. In a groundbreaking experiment, researchers have ...

The measurement problem in quantum mechanics looks at how an experimental outcome changes, simply by observing it.

Researchers have developed what amounts to a programmable platform for quantum chirality that could provide new approaches to explore interacting electrons in chiral systems. (Nanowerk News) A new ...
