Researchers at TU Wien have developed a one-dimensional “quantum wire” using a gas of ultracold atoms. In this system, both ...

Every year, Santa Claus races around the globe in a matter of hours to bring presents to children all over the world.

A team of physicists has created a cloud of ultracold atoms that stubbornly resists the most basic rule of everyday ...

A stable "exceptional fermionic superfluid," a new quantum phase that intrinsically hosts singularities known as exceptional ...

Quantum teleportation has finally stepped out of pristine laboratory loops and into the messy reality of live internet cables ...

Using ultracold atoms and laser light, researchers recreated the behavior of a Josephson junction—an essential component of ...

More than 200 years ago, Count Rumford showed that heat isn’t a mysterious substance but something you can generate endlessly ...

An experiment with ultracold atoms reveals that a strongly driven quantum system doesn’t always heat up as expected. In daily life, doing work on something over and over usually makes it warmer. You ...

Governments and tech companies continue to pour money into quantum technology in the hopes of building a supercomputer that can work at speeds we can't yet fathom to solve big problems.
