The research team used two distributed sensors and leveraged two quantum resources for increasing detection sensitivity: ...

A mathematical equivalent of a microscope with variable resolution has shed light on why some atoms are exceptionally stable, ...

In some quantum materials, which are materials governed by quantum mechanical effects, interactions between charged particles (i.e., electrons) can prompt the creation of quasiparticles called anyons, ...

What is meant, when an experiment anticipates less than a quarter of an event, and four are registered by the detector? That ...

Scientists use distant gamma ray bursts to prove that light maintains its constant speed, reinforcing Einstein's theory.

Using gold flakes, salt water, and light, scientists have made the universe’s invisible binding forces visible in color. The discovery opens new possibilities for studying how matter organizes itself ...

The photograph, titled “Underwater Hunting,” was a finalist for the 2025 Global Physics Photowalk. The competition, held ...

They ask us to believe, for example, that the world we experience is fundamentally divided from the subatomic realm it’s built from. Or that there is a wild proliferation of parallel universes, or ...

Harry O'Mara, Luis Enrique Rosas Hernandaz, Sachini Withanage, Hemanta Pradhan and James Mangum share what they have been able to accomplish with the support of the Hughes family in the following ...

An experiment measuring a single atom's recoil confirmed that observing a particle destroys interference, settling the ...

Bates has welcomed a large group of new faculty this year. Seventeen tenured or tenure-track professors joined the college during the 2025-2026 academic year.

A new theoretical framework shows how subtle fluctuations in spacetime could be detected using existing interferometers.
