Probing the vibration of atoms provides detailed information on local structure and bonding that define material properties.
Researchers in the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) and the Faculty of Arts and Sciences have devised a new way to make some of the smallest, smoothest mirrors ...
Quantum simulations are pushing physicists to rethink what it means for an atom to move. In new work on a quantum computer, ...
Researchers have uncovered how atoms subtly rearrange themselves for up to a trillionth of a second before releasing ...
Scientists in Germany have shed light on how nanoscale imaging techniques like tip-enhanced Raman ...
Researchers have demonstrated that a nanoparticle of 7,000 sodium atoms can act as a wave, creating a record-setting superposition.
Scientists have demonstrated that atoms can exhibit wave-like behavior, challenging long-held assumptions that experiments of this nature were impossible and opening new doors in quantum physics. The ...
A couple of weeks back I posted an answer to a question from a Twitter follower’s child, who asked “How Strong Is Space?” That was fun, so here’s another kid-question answered, this one from my own ...
Not content with protons and atomic nuclei, physicists took a new kind of particle for a spin around the world’s most powerful particle accelerator. On July 25, the Large Hadron Collider, located at ...
In a quantum world drowning in lab demos, Infleqtion is making a different bet—real hardware, real missions, real deployments ...
