The world's largest atom smasher, designed as a portal to a new view of physics, has produced its first peek at the unexpected: bits of matter that don't mirror the behavior of their antimatter ...

A team from the Faculty of Physics and the Center for Quantum Optical Technologies at the Center of New Technologies, ...

Atom interferometry has emerged as a transformative approach in both fundamental physics and practical applications, utilising the wave nature of atoms to measure minute effects of gravity, rotation ...

Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr had an ongoing rivalry about the true nature of quantum mechanics, and came up with a thought ...

Information has been stored in a single atom for the first time. The nascent binary memory was created by Andreas Heinrich at the Institute of Basic Science in South Korea and an international team.

The University of Chicago, where Fermi split the atom in 1942, is becoming the center of a new form of advanced technology.

It was with great pleasure when on Tuesday morning I read that Serge Haroche and Dave Wineland had been awarded the 2012 Nobel Prize in Physics "for ground-breaking experimental methods that enable ...

A team of physicists experimentally produces quantum-superpositions, simply using a mirror. Standing in front of a mirror, we can easily tell apart ourselves from our mirror image. The mirror does not ...

In a major physics breakthrough, scientists in New Zealand have developed a technique to consistently isolate and capture a fast-moving neutral atom -- and have also seen and photographed this atom ...
