Quantum physicists at ANU have observed atoms entangled in motion. "It's really weird for us to think that this is how the universe works," says Dr. Sean Hodgman from the ANU Research School of ...
Using ultracold atoms and laser light, researchers recreated the behavior of a Josephson junction—an essential component of quantum computers and voltage standards. The appearance of Shapiro steps in ...
This video explores the concept of "touch," explaining that it's not direct contact but rather electromagnetic repulsion between atoms. It dives into the Pauli Exclusion Principle, which illustrates ...
Delve into the detail of atomic physics. As the basic units of matter, atoms are the building blocks for everything in the universe. Once thought to be indivisible, we now know they can indeed be ...
Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...
Curious Kids is a series for children of all ages. If you have a question you'd like an expert to answer, send it to CuriousKidsUS@theconversation.com. 'The chances of you living 50 years are very ...
Researchers at Purdue University have trapped alkali atoms (cesium) on an integrated photonic circuit, which behaves like a transistor for photons (the smallest energy unit of light) similar to ...
STOCKHOLM — The Nobel Prize in physics was awarded Tuesday to three scientists who look at electrons in atoms during the tiniest of split seconds. Pierre Agostini of The Ohio State University in the U ...
