Scientists with the University of Chicago and Shanxi University announced they have created a way to use lasers to "simulate" a material that physicists have been drooling over for its potential technological applications ...
When it comes to studying particles in motion, experimentalists have followed a 100-year-old theory that claims the microscopic motion of a particle is determined by random collisions with molecules of the surrounding medium, ...
What exactly is light—and what is it made of? It's an age-old question that dates back to antiquity, and one of the most important investigations undertaken by scientists looking to understand the nature of reality.
The Feynman-Tan relation, obtained by combining Feynman energy relation with Tan's two-body contact, explained excitation spectra of strongly interacting quantum gases of 39K atoms. However, whether Feynman-Tan relation is ...
Scanning the first images of a well-known early galaxy taken by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), Cornell astronomers were intrigued to see a blob of light near its outer edge.
Quantum entanglement refers to a phenomenon in quantum mechanics in which two or more particles become linked such that the state of each particle cannot be described independently of the others, even when they are separated ...
Observations of supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies point to a likely source of dark energy—the 'missing' 70% of the universe.
Astronomers have directly measured the mass of a dead star using an effect known as gravitational microlensing, first predicted by Albert Einstein in his General Theory of Relativity, and first observed by two Cambridge astronomers ...
Quantized vortices can be generated in classical experiments of liquid helium and ultracold dilute gases to conduct fundamental and comparative studies of different superfluids. In a new report published in Science Advances, ...
What is behind dark energy—and what connects it to the cosmological constant introduced by Albert Einstein? Two physicists from the University of Luxembourg point the way to answering these open questions of physics.
