Physicists including Roger Penrose observed gravity’s effect on a falling quantum object for the first time, confirming ...

Remember building model molecules with balls and sticks in chemistry class? You have J. Robert Oppenheimer to thank for that, as a quantum chemist explains.

Many atomic nuclei have a magnetic field similar to that of Earth. However, directly at the surface of a heavy nucleus such as lead or bismuth, it is trillions of times stronger than Earth's field and ...

Physicists split an atomic wave between free fall and a stationary path, revealing a quantum phase predicted nearly a century ago.

For more than a century, quantum mechanics and Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity have each passed countless tests, but physicists have struggled to reconcile the two. Now, scientists in ...

A team of scientists from Caltech and Yale University has shown for the first time how to accurately quantify an important ...

Scientists have pioneered a new methodology of fabricating carbon-based quantum materials at the atomic scale by integrating scanning probe microscopy techniques and deep neural networks. This ...

Quantum metrology exploits uniquely quantum phenomena—most notably entanglement and squeezing—to achieve measurement precision beyond the standard quantum limit imposed by uncorrelated particles. In ...
