You've probably seen videos showing characters walking through walls like ghosts. Upon closer inspection, atoms consist of a ...

The Bohr model, introduced by Danish physicist Niels Bohr in 1913, was a key step on the journey to understand atoms. Ancient Greek thinkers already believed that matter was composed of tiny basic ...

Seventy years ago, in Osmond Laboratory on Penn State's University Park campus, Erwin W. Müller, Evan Pugh Research Professor ...

A new kind of quantum computer uses a high-resolution microscope to control the electron spins of titanium atoms. Plus, the Universe-mapping Euclid telescope fixes the wobble that threatened its ...

A new calculation shows how five atoms interact in the Efimov effect. It marks a major leap in quantum physics. Matter behaves weirdly at the quantum scale, one of the strangest examples being the ...

Using optical tweezers composed of laser light, researchers have developed a novel way to manipulate individual atoms and create a state of hyper-entanglement. This breakthrough could lead to new ...
