Manuel Endres, professor of physics at Caltech, specializes in finely controlling single atoms using devices known as optical tweezers. He and his colleagues use the tweezers, made of laser light, to ...

Physicists may have just cracked open a hidden side of the quantum world. For decades, every known particle was thought to ...

A new study by University of Maryland chemical physicists demonstrates how to control the nuclear spin of molecular hydrogen ...

Time already behaves strangely in modern physics. It can stretch, slow, and split depending on speed and gravity. Now a new ...

Trapped atom experiment shows that quantum motion could power faster and more powerful computers of the future.

Professor Daniel Blumenthal's lab develops chip-scale components that can bring the power and precision of quantum science outside of the tightly controlled environment of the lab. (Santa Barbara, ...

There is a glaring gap in our knowledge of the physical world: none of our well-established theories describe gravity’s quantum nature. Yet physicists expect that this quantum nature is essential for ...
