The Rochester Quantum Network transmits information by sending single photons through two fiber-optic telecommunications ...

An invisible force has long eluded detection within the halls of the world’s most famous particle accelerator—until now.

A gigantic array of radio dishes proposed for the Utah desert could advance our understanding of physics and help us decode ...

A rule-breaking, colorful silicone that could conduct electricity. Previously only thought to be insulating, a shift in the ...

Quantum tunnelling — when a particle skips through a barrier that classical physics would forbid — happens faster when objects have less energy, find physicists who worked out a way to probe photons ...

Researchers at the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology (Leibniz IPHT) in Jena, Germany, together with international ...

Scientists say they’ve cracked a key challenge in scalable quantum hardware after generating an error-correcting, light-based ...

The Big Bang may mark an end—not the start—of a previous universe's aeon. Penrose's theory sees the universe as an eternal ...

The Electrojet Zeeman Imaging Explorer (EZIE) mission aims to map auroral electrojets, improving scientific models of space ...

Atomic and molecular interactions with photons is the study of the way in which the basic elements of matter interact with packets of electromagnetic energy. This interaction is determined largely ...

There are fundamentally two ways to generate electricity. The first is based on electromagnetic induction, which remains the ...
