Can a single particle have a temperature? It may seem impossible with our standard understanding of temperature, but ...

Long before quantum mechanics existed, a scientist developed a powerful way of describing motion by drawing an analogy between particles and light.

Automatically numbering and weighting electronic states instead of taking averages improves estimates of target molecular orbitals.

The team have pushed the boundaries of quantum mechanics beyond what some thought possible. Now they want to go even further ...

Researchers at the California NanoSystems Institute at UCLA published a step-by-step framework for determining the ...
