What makes something quantum? This question has kept a small but dedicated fraction of the world's population—most of them ...

When atoms collide, their exact structure—for example, the number of electrons they have or even the quantum spin of their ...

Did these researchers truly just crack our fundamental concepts of (quantum) physics wide open ... in the photonic energy getting absorbed by an atom, boosting the energy state of its electron ...

Quantum calculations amount to sophisticated estimates. But in 1931, Hans Bethe intuited precisely how a chain of particles ...

A new method finally reveals the full quantum identity of electrons, offering insights that could transform material science ...

Developed by SECQAI, the QLLM enhances traditional AI models with quantum computing for improved efficiency and ...

The approach, called the Beryllium Electron capture in Superconducting Tunnel junctions experiment (BeEST) works because the ...

If the atom decays, the Geiger counter triggers the release of poison, killing the cat. Quantum mechanics suggests that, until we observe the system, the atom exists in a superposition of decayed ...

Having this knowledge from our model would help with readiness for detecting and preventing, as well as treating, emerging and future variants.” Quantum mechanical modeling allowed the team to develop ...

Atom optics is the study of the wave-like properties of beams of atoms. Wave–particle duality — a central principle of quantum mechanics — implies that effects traditionally associated with ...
