A rare and bewildering intermediate between crystal and glass can be the most stable arrangement for some combinations of atoms, according to a study from the University of Michigan. The findings come ...
Time has always seemed like the one thing physics could count on. Matter changes, stars die, particles flicker in and out, ...
EPFL researchers have developed the first comprehensive model of the quantum-mechanical effects behind photoluminescence in thin gold films; a discovery that could drive the development of solar fuels ...
The approach is known for high accuracy, but scaling it up while preserving that accuracy is technically difficult. Helios ...
The world of quantum video games is vast – there are hundreds that are either inspired by quantum mechanics or use quantum ...
Classical computations rely on binary bits, which can be in either of the two states, 0 or 1. In contrast, quantum computing is based on qubits, which can be 0, 1, or a superposition or entanglement ...
There is more than one way to describe a water molecule, especially when communicating with a machine learning (ML) model, says chemist Robert DiStasio. You can feed the algorithm the molecule's ...
High-order harmonic generation (HHG) is an extreme nonlinear process arising from the interaction of strong field laser pulses with atoms and molecules in the gaseous phase. When the correct phase ...

Four decades ago, physicists were theorizing that the mind-bending mechanics of quantum physics could be harnessed to make a new kind of computer that’s exponentially more powerful than conventional ...
Quasicrystals couldn't be simulated with quantum mechanics because of their irregular atomic patterns. A new method overcomes this challenge. (Nanowerk News) A rare and bewildering intermediate ...
