Near absolute zero, atoms stop acting like particles and start behaving like waves. In this ultracold world, scientists can ...

For two centuries, students have learned that heat flows and engines work according to rigid limits that no machine can beat.

In Juy, Mikhail Lukin at Harvard University announced they had a 51 quantum bit simulator. Quantum simulators are used to model the minute behavior of molecules, and could help study how drugs act ...

In classical physics, anything driven hard enough will eventually heat up, lose coherence, and settle into disorder. A new ...

Engineers in Sydney have demonstrated a quantum integrated circuit made up of just a few atoms. By precisely controlling the quantum states of the atoms, the new processor can simulate the structure ...

Scientists have captured the first ever footage of atoms bonding at a scale around half a million times smaller than the width of a human hair. Using advanced microscopy methods, the team of UK and ...

Most of the things that we measure aren't critical and we can have a pretty large margin of error and be okay. For instance if you're weighing yourself a pound low or ...

Atoms don’t scale, and this is the ultimate barrier to the continuation of Moore’s Law, Dr Bernie Meyerson, chief technology officer of IBM, told the 2006 Globalpress Summit Conference in Monterey.

Physicists have succeeded in manipulating atoms individually in a lattice of light and in arranging them in arbitrary patterns. These results are an important step towards large-scale quantum ...

Researchers have developed a technique similar to the MRI but has higher resolution and sensitivity, which has the ability to scan individual cells. Researchers from the Institute of Photonic Sciences ...
