Electrons are usually described as particles, but in a rare quantum material, that picture completely breaks down ...

Einstein’s claim that the speed of light is constant has survived more than a century of scrutiny—but scientists are still ...

In classical physics, anything driven hard enough will eventually heat up, lose coherence, and settle into disorder. A new ...

A hundred years ago, quantum mechanics was a radical theory that baffled even the brightest minds. Today, it's the backbone ...

A material cooled near absolute zero produced an electrical signal that physics said should not exist, revealing a new kind ...

Quantum materials can behave in surprising ways when many tiny spins act together, producing effects that don’t exist in ...

A team of physicists has reimagined one of science’s most iconic experiments—but in the dimension of time. Researchers at Imperial College London have taken the classic double-slit test and turned it ...

At TU Wien, researchers have discovered a state in a quantum material that had previously been considered impossible. The ...

Let me tell you about my book "Fields and Their Quanta: Making Sense of Quantum Foundations," published last year by Springer. It's technical, but I'll describe it in English. Scientists agree the ...

Our universe plays by certain rules, which originate from different branches of physics. But sometimes the rules seem ...
