A new experiment with momentum-entangled helium atoms could help unite quantum mechanics and general relativity.

Researchers from Hanns-Christoph Nägerl's group have produced the world's first ultracold KCs molecules in their absolute ground state. Starting by mixing clouds of potassium and cesium atoms cooled ...

The LIGO gravitational wave observatory in the United States is so sensitive to vibrations it can detect the tiny ripples in space-time called gravitational waves. These waves are caused by colliding ...

Scientists recently spotted inflated rubidium atoms at room temperature behaving as a time crystal. Usually, this novel matter requires near absolute zero temperatures and elaborate equipment. A ...

Infleqtion has a platform called Oqtant. It’s like a quantum playground on the internet! It lets students, researchers, and ...

NASA’s Cold Atom Lab is a first-of-its-kind physics laboratory operating in Earth orbit. About the size of a mini-fridge, it hosts multiple experiments that explore the fundamental nature of atoms by ...

Atoms of the soft, silvery metal indium have been chilled to temperatures so cold that the particles can demonstrate strange quantum behaviour, such as forming new types of matter. Because indium ...

The race to build the first useful quantum computer is on and may revolutionize the world with brand new capabilities, from medicine to freight logistics. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest ...

A key objective of ongoing research rooted in molecular physics is to understand and precisely control chemical reactions at very low temperatures. At low temperatures, the chemical reactions between ...
