The nature of quantum particles has long puzzled scientists. While single-particle interference suggests that a photon can ...

An MIT-led team has found that data from “near-misses” at the Large Hadron Collider, long dismissed as background noise, can ...

Scientists at Sandia National Laboratories and the Max Planck Institute have developed a way to produce a web of quantum entangled photons using a far more simple setup than usual. The key is a ...

Physicists have for the first time observed light drifting sideways in discrete, quantized steps, reproducing a quantum Hall ...

Particle accelerators reveal the heart of nuclear matter by smashing together atoms at close to the speed of light. The ...

Hiroshima University researchers develop a new experimental method to demonstrate that interference physically delocalizes ...

Physicists at the Max Planck Institute have developed an efficient new method to drive the quantum entanglement of photons, and demonstrated it by entangling a record number of photons. The technique ...

On and off: Better, simpler control of single-photon emissions opens the door to new platforms in quantum research. (Courtesy: art-skvortsova/iStockphoto) Researchers ...

Researchers in Germany and the UK are the first to entangle pairs of photons using a single atom. Their technique is based on an optical cavity containing one rubidium atom, and could provide a way to ...

Remarkably, the physics of the Josephson effect, describing the tunnel coupling of the two superconductors, dictates that photons within the same junction strongly interact with one another, in sharp ...
