A sensor using quantum entanglement can determine if a single magnetic excitation is present in a millimeter-sized sphere. This moves us closer to the limit…
It is like jumping on and off a carousel: what happens to neutrons changing from a non-rotating frame of reference into a rotating frame of…
Electrons travel in cars with increasing numbers, giving rise to a conductance series that shows up in Pascal’s triangle. Credit: Yun-Yi Pai Discovery shows electrons…
The French theoretical physicist Franck Laloë presents a modification of Schrödinger’s famous equation that ensures that all measured states are unique, helping to solve the…
Picture of the single atom trap. In the ultra-high vacuum glass cell a single Rubidium atom is captured, which later will be entangled with a…

Laser light can be used to capture individual atoms along a very thin glass fiber. Credit: Mathieu L. Juan Scientists have removed an important obstacle…
A new study proposed a scheme to achieve ultrahigh reduced transition temperature, up to Tc/TF ~ 1, in two-component atomic Fermi gases, a system that…
The total image or direct intensity image is obtained by the accumulation of light on the camera. With the technique, researchers are able to separate…
The Pleiades supercomputer at NASA Ames is one of the many supercomputers used to find the limit of quantum supremacy. Credit: NASA Ames Google, in…
Local distortions in the surface push electrons close to defects. Only the combination of defects and strain can explain the new kind of quantum light.…
