Supercomputing has shifted into the mainstream, with recent AI advancements and adoption making the use of massive amounts of ...

Ordinary matter, when cooled, transitions from a gas into a liquid. Cool it further still, and it freezes into a solid.

A network of ultra-competitive high-school talent streams has been turning out the leading lights of science and tech ...

China has quietly crossed a threshold in magnet technology that most people will never see but many will eventually feel. By ...

John Martinis has already revolutionised quantum computing twice. Now, he is working on another radical rethink of the ...

To reach this conclusion, the researchers examined the most basic form of entanglement between identical particles using the concept of nonlocality introduced by physicist John Bell. While ...

The Einstein–de Haas effect, which links the spin of electrons to macroscopic rotation, has now been demonstrated in a ...

Long before quantum mechanics existed, a scientist developed a powerful way of describing motion by drawing an analogy between particles and light.

Essentially, the quantum metric creates a “geometric” drag on the electrons. When the magnetic field is applied, it breaks ...

Can a single particle have a temperature? It may seem impossible with our standard understanding of temperature, but columnist Jacklin Kwan finds that it’s not exactly ruled out in the quantum realm ...

Researchers from Regensburg and Birmingham have overcome a fundamental limitation of optical microscopy. With the help of ...
