Modern technological breakthroughs like lasers, MRI scanners, semiconductors and quantum computers rest on the study of ...

Physicists have many delightful theories about how our universe might end, including one that suggests it isn’t in its most stable state. If it transitions to that state, we could all be squelched ...

The universe may be trapped in its own comfort zone, and a researcher in the College of Engineering and Computer Science has ...

Quantum mechanics powers lasers and precision measurements. A century-spanning perspective examines those successes and the ...

In a quantum system of arrayed two-level atoms interacting with light, the interacted (dressed) photon is propagating in a periodic medium and its eigenstate ought to be of Bloch type with lattice ...

Learn about current advancements in quantum sensing technology and what's still to come in the quantum space from experts at ...

Wang et al. reduced the noise from the source and the servo channel to develop a highly sensitive and repeater-like laser source to ultimately generate twin-fields with 10-mw output power. They ...

An international research team has sparked interest in the scientific community with results in quantum physics. In their current study, the researchers reinterpret the Higgs mechanism, which gives ...

Trapped electrons traveling in circular loops at extreme speeds inside graphene quantum dots are highly sensitive to external magnetic fields and could be used as novel magnetic field sensors with ...

In hushed voices in a darkened room, John and James Kountz stared intently at what looked to any unsuspecting person like a computer screen inside a metal suitcase. The identical twins in matching ...

Migratory birds fly thousands of kilometers without maps or smartphones and return to almost the same place every year, right ...
