What is heat, and what is useful work if a machine consists only of an atom and light particles? In modern quantum technologies, this kind of question connects thermodynamics with quantum physics.
Researchers at Monash University have predicted a new type of quantum matter that challenges decades of thinking about how ...
From the 1800s to the early 2000s, physicists used the same theory to understand the behavior of fluids. Now, using a modern ...
An important part of the Standard Model of particle physics, quantum chromodynamics describes the strong interaction of ...
Remember building model molecules with balls and sticks in chemistry class? You have J. Robert Oppenheimer to thank for that, ...
This article is part of CNN Underscored’s Guide to Laid-Back Living, an editorial package focused on screen-free activities to inspire you to go analog this year. We’ll be featuring articles and ...
Physicists have long assumed that uniting quantum mechanics with gravity would require spacetime itself to behave quantum mechanically. A new theoretical framework suggests that some apparent signs of ...
A quantum problem once described as impossible for classical computers has now been solved using relatively modest hardware. Researchers used tensor networks to compress the overwhelming wave function ...
