Cosserat Microrotation. Neutrinos are “twists” that don’t stretch the lattice. Their mass is suppressed by the vacuum’s twist impedance (approx 0.05 eV). A natural, mechanical explanation for why ...

Physicists have found a way to measure how long ultra-fast quantum events actually take—without using a clock at all.

The concept of time has troubled philosophers and physicists for thousands of years, and the advent of quantum mechanics has not simplified the ...

EPFL physicists have found a way to measure the time involved in quantum events and found it depends on the symmetry of the material. "The concept of time has troubled philosophers and physicists for ...

Technique lays the groundwork for neutral-atom quantum computers with more than 100 000 qubits, say physicists ...

Now researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have found a way to use terahertz light to watch a ...

Physicists have finally built a microscope that can watch superconducting electrons move in real time, and the picture is far ...

While quantum computers continue to slowly grind towards usefulness, some are pursuing a different approach—analog quantum ...

Physicists discover hidden quantum geometry that warps electrons like gravity bends light, opening the door to faster, more ...

For a century, the Schrödinger equation has been the bedrock of quantum mechanics, successfully predicting how matter behaves as a wave. Yet, physics has lacked a fundamental explanation for why ...

They combined optical tweezers with metasurfaces to trap more than 1,000 atoms, with the potential to capture hundreds of ...

Essentially, the quantum metric creates a “geometric” drag on the electrons. When the magnetic field is applied, it breaks ...
