Experiments with hydrogen atoms could soon reveal whether particles that were long thought to be forbidden by physics ...

By breaking away from the laws of classical physics, quantum physics has opened the door to describing the behavior of atoms ...

There wasn't a lot of gold and it didn't last long, but the results are still impressive. For centuries, alchemists dreamed ...

A bold new quantum theory of gravity may finally bridge the long-standing rift between Einstein’s general relativity and ...

Scientists have just snapped pictures of single atoms as they move around freely, capturing details once hidden from sight.

MIT scientists have snapped the first-ever images of individual atoms interacting freely in space, making visible the elusive ...

MIT physicists have taken the first-ever direct images of individual atoms interacting freely in space. Their findings, published in the journal Physical Review Letters, reveal hidden quantum ...

Until now, atoms have never been imaged interacting freely in space, but a new technique known as non-resolved microscopy has ...

Swinburne researchers have discovered unexpected and entirely new quantum behaviors that only occur in one-dimensional ...

ABSTRACT: “All is Number”—the universe follows a few profound mathematical rules, and pure thought can grasp reality. This paper explores the first principles of fundamental physics, focusing on the ...
