Levitating and spinning diamonds might sound like science fiction, but they’re now part of a bold effort to study the ...

DARPA chose Diraq and Silicon Quantum Computing for the Quantum Benchmarking Initiative, which will assess whether ...

After netting the world’s highest-paying science award, preeminent theoretical physicist Gerard ’t Hooft reflects on his ...

Quantum systems are known to be prone to dissipation, a process that entails the irreversible loss of energy and that is ...

Protons minimize energy by forming pairs with opposite spin. Same for neutrons. Each pair acts like a particle in its own right. So nuclei act very differently depending on whether they have an even ...

But it’s not just validation the DARPA is offering. According to Nord Quantique, DARPA will provide substantial funding ...

An impossible quantum structure has now been fabricated, potentially leading the way to new developments in quantum computing ...

In a major breakthrough, scientists have successfully combined two unusual materials—once thought impossible to merge—into a ...

Drifting is the most common term for an issue where joysticks detect false inputs — even when no one is touching a controller ...

This episode of the Physics World Weekly podcast features William Phillips, who shared the 1997 Nobel Prize for Physics for his work on cooling and trapping atoms using laser light.

Scientists have discovered a surprising magnetic spin phase where order and disorder mix, challenging old ideas.

Kennesaw State University researchers Chetan Dhital and Madalynn Marshall have received a three-year, $799,934 grant from the ...
