What would it really take to travel at or beyond the speed of light? In this video, we break down the hard physics Hollywood ...

Quantum entanglement occurs when two subatomic particles become linked in such a way that their properties remain connected, no matter how far apart they are. A change to one particle seems to ...

By miniaturizing THz spectroscopy to a chip-scale platform, James McIver’s lab has uncovered a promising new method for controlling quantum materials. Under certain conditions, two-dimensional (2D) ...

Physics is the study of the underlying laws and mechanisms explaining how the universe works. Most of what we do in daily life is based on a principle or law of physics—dealing with forces, motion, ...

Squeezed light is a specialized form of light in which quantum fluctuations are redistributed between two complementary ...

Scientists have created the first real-time 3D simulations of how lasers alter the quantum vacuum. Using cutting-edge computational modeling, scientists from the University of Oxford, in collaboration ...

When dust sticks to a surface or a lizard sits on a ceiling, it is due to "nature's invisible glue." Researchers at Chalmers ...

Superconductivity and quantum computing are two fields that have seeped from theoretical circles into popular consciousness.

A former “D” student from Norway, he made his mark at G.E.’s Research Lab in the U.S., in part by confirming a pivotal theory about superconductivity. By Dylan Loeb McClain Ivar Giaever might not have ...
