New observations of microscopic vortices confirm the existence of a paradoxical phase of matter that may also arise inside ...

Shapes created by vortices in water often fall apart, but an odd quantum fluid made from ultracold atoms could support vortex ...

In a groundbreaking experiment at the Technion Faculty of Physics, researchers demonstrated the transfer of atoms via quantum ...

Supersolids are a new form of quantum matter that has only recently been demonstrated. The state of matter can be produced artificially in ultracold, dipolar quantum gases. A team has now demonstrated ...

"The wave function of a BEC corresponds to the ground state of a macroscopic quantum object," one paper explains. "In other words, a collection of atoms in a BEC behaves as a single quantum entity." ...

Researchers from Skoltech, the University of Warsaw, and the University of Iceland have demonstrated that by optical means it ...

New benchmark helps solve the hardest quantum problems Date: October 17, 2024 Source: Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne Summary: Predicting the behavior of many interacting quantum ...

Recent headlines have proclaimed that Chinese scientists have hacked "military-grade encryption" using quantum computers, sparking concern and speculation about the future of cybersecurity.

Measuring disorder in the quantum realm is creating a bit of a mess. A mathematical study found that three different definitions of entropy that were previously thought to be equivalent don’t ...

Exotic quantum rifts have been created with charged atoms, and they exist in a superposition of being in two places at once. This is a first step towards better understanding the behaviour of such ...
