Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

Scientists were able to manipulate a calcium monohydride molecular ion — made up of one atom of hydrogen and one atom of calcium.

There is more than one way to describe a water molecule, especially when communicating with a machine learning (ML) model, says chemist Robert DiStasio. You can feed the algorithm the molecule's ...

Now, researchers at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering and the Abdus Salam International ...

Researchers used atomic clock laser methods and a helper calcium atom to control a calcium monohydride molecule, expanding molecular options for quantum tasks, tests of physics, and chemistry control.

The universe has no brain. It has no gray matter, no nervous system, no neurons firing electrical impulses—and yet, that physical structure may not be where intelligence and consciousness actually ...

Ultracold atoms have successfully mimicked a fundamental quantum effect normally found in electronic circuits.

The odd phenomenon of quantum superposition has helped researchers break a fundamental quantum mechanical limit – and given quantum objects properties that make them useful for quantum computing for ...

The fifth state of matter—the ultracold Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC)—has been an invaluable tool in unlocking the secrets ...

At the smallest scales, heat engines can do more than Carnot ever imagined. Researchers at the University of Stuttgart have ...

At first glance, quantum mechanics might seem strange or even impossible. That’s because our everyday experiences of the laws of physics are very different from how matter and energy behave at the ...
