Portland, Ore. – Researchers at the Weizmann Institute of Science have experimentally verified a long-postulated possibility for one-dimensional quantum devices. The team fabricated wires so small ...

These days, everybody learns in grade school that an atom looks a bit like a little solar system, with a positively charged nucleus orbited by negatively charged electrons. Hydrogen is the simplest ...

Two experiment collaborations, the g2p and EG4 collaborations, combined their complementary data on the proton's inner ...

For the first time, scientists have recorded electrons in the act of snapping chemical bonds, turning an abstract quantum ...

Physicists have shown that electrons in narrow wires can divide into two new particles called spinons and a holons. A team of physicists from the Universities of Cambridge and Birmingham have shown ...

In quantum optics, generating entangled and spatially separated photon pairs (e.g. for quantum cryptography) is already a reality. So far, it has, however, not been possible to demonstrate an ...

NEWPORT NEWS, VA – While it’s commonplace for many scientists to collaborate on nuclear physics experiments at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility, it’s ...
