Regions within a cell in which biomolecules are concentrated, called condensates, form different structures when enzymes are involved, according to experiments. A biomolecular condensate is a small ...
When intense quantum light knocks electrons out of atoms, the statistics of the light can be transferred to the electrons. Strong-field ionization—a process in which intense laser light strips ...
Pairing superconducting qubits with microwave cavities could reduce the hardware requirements for quantum simulations of fundamental physics. Performing simulations of quantum systems on an ordinary ...
A pattern of surface waves bestowed with fivefold symmetry hosts topological structures. Soon after quasicrystals made their debut in 1984, physicists realized that the ordered, nonrepeating ...
New experiments suggest that superconductivity in twisted bilayer graphene depends on an unconventional electron-pairing mechanism. Figure 1: Two twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) layers stacked one on ...
A ring of optical fiber can be made to host phenomena that originated in the realm of high-energy physics. Yang and his colleagues achieved their feat using a platform based on fiber ring resonators, ...
Different analyses of gravitational-wave observations are converging on evidence for a distinct population of massive black hole binaries produced through repeated mergers. Figure 1: Hundreds of ...
Figure 1: Barrios Hita and colleagues have explored a new path for developing a formulation of quantum theory that doesn’t rely on complex numbers [5]. In standard quantum theory, every physical ...
Figure 1: A cross section of the core of a collapsing star. Electron neutrinos (blue arrows) and muon and tau neutrinos (green arrows) are emitted and absorbed within all parts of the core. In the ...
Through a quantum-switch experiment, researchers attempt to reveal “indefinite causal order”—a quantum phenomenon involving events in a before-and-after superposition. Artistic rendition of the ...
Two direct-detection experiments see no evidence of a signal reported by their predecessor. In 1997, the DAMA/NaI experiment observed a signal whose annual variability was suggestive of dark matter.
A Bose-Einstein condensate of radioactive atoms could turn into a source of intense, coherent, and directional neutrino beams, according to a theoretical proposal. Figure 1: Top: At high temperature, ...
