Electrons are usually described as particles, but in a rare quantum material, that picture completely breaks down ...

When scientists repeatedly drove a strongly interacting quantum system with laser “kicks,” they expected it to heat up and ...

A hundred years ago, quantum mechanics was a radical theory that baffled even the brightest minds. Today, it's the backbone ...

Einstein’s claim that the speed of light is constant has survived more than a century of scrutiny—but scientists are still ...

A recent study proposes that gravity, the force shaping galaxies and anchoring planets, might not be fundamental after all.

Physicists are preparing an experiment that sounds like science fiction: a device designed to snare individual particles of ...

A team of physicists has reimagined one of science’s most iconic experiments—but in the dimension of time. Researchers at Imperial College London have taken the classic double-slit test and turned it ...

Quantum materials can behave in surprising ways when many tiny spins act together, producing effects that don’t exist in ...

A material cooled near absolute zero produced an electrical signal that physics said should not exist, revealing a new kind ...

At TU Wien, researchers have discovered a state in a quantum material that had previously been considered impossible. The ...

Our universe plays by certain rules, which originate from different branches of physics. But sometimes the rules seem ...
