The standard model of particle physics represents the most comprehensive theory about fundamental or subatomic particles and forces in the universe. The model describes how matter and antimatter ...

Researchers at Brown University in the US have observed fractional excitons, a new class of quantum materials in a global first. These particles that defy traditional understanding of quantum ...

In a study, physicists now observed a class of quantum particles called fractional excitons, which behave in unexpected ways and could significantly expand scientists' understanding of the quantum ...

Physicists have long relied on the idea that electrons behave like tiny particles zipping through materials, even though ...

In the everyday world that humans experience, objects behave in a predictable way, explained by classical physics. One of the important aspects of classical physics is that nothing, not even ...

Classical and quantum mechanics don’t really get along as the science of the subatomic can get, well, weird. Take, for instance, quantum entanglement, which says that the state of one particle can be ...

A new proposal makes the case that paraparticles — a new category of quantum particle — could be created in exotic materials. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

Recently, Professor Jianda Wu’s research team from the Tsung-Dao Lee Institute at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, in collaboration with Professor Jie Ma from the School of Physics and Astronomy and ...
