Latest about Quantum Physics
Stunning image shows atoms transforming into quantum waves — just as Schrödinger predicted
A new imaging technique, which captured frozen lithium atoms transforming into quantum waves, could be used to probe some of the most poorly understood aspects of the quantum world.
Quantum mechanics: Definitions, axioms, and key concepts of quantum physics
Reference Quantum mechanics, or quantum physics, is the body of scientific laws that describe the wacky behavior of photons, electrons and the other subatomic particles that make up the universe.
Tweak to Schrödinger's cat equation could unite Einstein's relativity and quantum mechanics, study hints
Physicists have proposed modifications to the infamous Schrödinger's cat paradox that could help explain why quantum particles can exist in more than one state simultaneously, while large objects (like the universe) seemingly cannot.
Scientists made the coldest large molecule on record — and it has a super strange chemical bond
A four-atom molecule has broken the record for coldest large molecule.
Physicists make record-breaking 'quantum vortex' to study the mysteries of black holes
Physicists created a 'quantum vortex,' which flows with 500 times less viscosity than water and could be used to study the space-time warping caused by black holes.
World's largest gravitational wave observatory squeezes light beyond the 'quantum limit'
Researchers at the LIGO gravitational wave observatory used a new technique called frequency-dependent squeezing to boost weak signals above quantum noise.
Quantum 'yin-yang' shows two photons being entangled in real-time
The stunning experiment, which reconstructs the properties of entangled photons from a 2D interference pattern, could be used to design faster quantum computers.
'The most magical equation in physics': How Paul Dirac accidentally revealed the strange world of antimatter
In this extract from the book 'The One Thing You Need to Know', author Marcus Chown explains how the Dirac Equation came to be.
