Does learning about quantum physics freak you out? A new book aims to change that, and just in time. The second quantum revolution is coming: superconductors that could revolutionise clean energy ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Matter gets weird at the quantum scale, and among the oddities is the Efimov effect, a state in which the attractive forces between three or more atoms bind them together, even ...
When a singer belts out a tune while a guitar player strums along, sound waves travel through the air, driving collective oscillations of the molecules within. Meanwhile, at the quantum level, ...
Electron spin may subtly break the symmetry between mirror-image molecules, helping explain why biology chose one molecular ...
A team of physicists have proposed a new idea for uniting quantum mechanics and gravity, which they believe could explain the earliest moments of the universe. While interesting, and potentially even ...
For millennia, the concept of an omniscient God — a deity who knows every sparrow that falls, every thought that forms, and every star that burns across the vast expanse of the cosmos — has boggled ...
What is real? Six short films by two physics professors attempt to explain quantum physics. The Department of Physics and Astronomy will hold a screening March 13 of “What is Real? Six Short Films ...
Quantum entanglement is one of the strangest and most fascinating phenomena in physics. Even Einstein didn’t believe it - he called it “spooky action at a distance” - but science has proven it true.
