Quantum particles can move between two locations through a process called tunneling. However, what ...

No one has ever probed a particle more stringently than this. In a new experiment, scientists measured a magnetic property of the electron more carefully than ever before, making the most precise ...

One of the most enduring mysteries of particle physics may be finally resolved, two new studies suggest. The oddities of muons, subatomic particles that are relatives of electrons, are starting to ...

The Quantum Systems Accelerator (QSA) pioneers studies to build and co-design the next generation of programmable quantum devices. An interdisciplinary team of scientists from QSA institutions, ...

Bilayer non-magnetic semiconductor shows transient spin control using linearly polarized light, laying groundwork for ...

Physicists have published an array of experimental evidence showing that the ordered magnetic arrangement of electrons in crystals of iron-germanium plays an integral role in bringing about an ordered ...

Magnetorotational instability—a process that might explain the dynamics of astrophysical accretion disks—has finally been observed in the laboratory. Figure 1: The glowing accretion disk around a ...

The final results from the Muon g − 2 experiment agree with the latest predictions of the muon’s magnetic properties—letting down hopes that the particle would upset the standard model’s applecart.

A material thinner than a human hair may foster faster computing devices that demand less energy and store more data, ...

A new historical analysis argues that cognitive science and statistical physics independently converged on a shared ...

Electricity, Magnetism, and Light Become OneIn the 19th century, while thermodynamics was chasing the steam engine, another ...
