Central to these systems are photon detectors, which detect and measure photons. One notable type is the superconducting nanowire single-photon detector (SNSPD). SNSPDs utilize ultra-thin ...

Wave-particle duality and entanglement are cornerstone concepts in quantum physics, yet their exact relationship has long remained a mystery. Researchers from China and Singapore have forged a ...

Top quarks follow the rules of special relativity day and night. Is there a time of day or night at which nature's heaviest elementary particle stops obeying Einstein's rules? The answer to that ...
