Physicists trap a single antimatter particle for months to understand how matter began to dominate the universe after big bangNorthwestern University scientists have trapped a single positron, the antimatter counterpart of an electron, for months while cooling it t...
This atomic clock is so precise it can detect how gravity changes time. Scientists now want to take it outside the lab and measure tiny shifts across EarthResearchers at Singapore's Centre for Quantum Technologies have developed a highly accurate lutetium-based atomic clock. This clock has a r...
How did an ‘impossible’ photon survive 2 billion light-years? Scientists point to a transformation involving axion-like particlesAn extremely energetic photon from GRB 221009A has puzzled physicists. This photon traveled over two billion light-years to reach Earth det...
Scientists made gravity act on an atom in a quantum superposition — the surprising result could bring Einstein’s theory and quantum physics closer togetherPhysicists have directly linked quantum mechanics and Einstein's gravity theory. An experiment used ultracold atoms in quantum superpositio...
145 years of physics overturned as sideways Hall effect breakthrough promises to rip apart textbooks & supercharge the next wave of quantum techResearchers have overturned a century-old physics rule about magnetic field detection. They engineered a custom quantum material to trigger...
Scientists finally observe a strange effect predicted by Einstein in a falling quantum object — what it means for the future of physicsPhysicists observed a quantum state change in ultracold atoms. This change matched Einstein's equivalence principle for a freely falling ob...
