An international group of researchers have investigated the role of memory in quantum systems and dynamics. Their findings ...

Sometimes a visually compelling metaphor is all you need to get an otherwise complicated idea across. In the summer of 2001, a Tulane physics professor named John P.

Attosecond physics has emerged as a transformative approach to probing the ultrafast dynamics of electrons within atoms, molecules and solids. By utilising light pulses that last on the order of 10⁻¹⁸ ...

Chemistry textbooks explain how reactions start and end, but they rarely show what happens in between. Seeing these hidden moments matters because chemistry is ultimately governed by quantum rules. By ...

Many systems obey simple, linear rules: If you pull twice as hard on a spring, it stretches twice as far. However, when we introduce very large forces or complicated interactions, that linear rule ...

The ability to conduct heat is one of the most fundamental properties of matter, crucial for engineering applications. Scientists know well how conventional materials, such as metals and insulators, ...

Schrödinger dynamics inspired novel wave physics explorations, including symmetry design, Floquet topology, adiabatic pumping, non-Hermitian dynamics, non-Abelian physics and nonlinear phenomena. In a ...

During chemical reactions, atoms in the reacting substances break their bonds and re-arrange, forming different chemical products. This process entails the movement of both electrons (i.e., negatively ...

At the smallest scales of matter, nature behaves in ways that feel almost counterintuitive. Individual particles follow simple rules, but when they interact together, entirely new behaviors can emerge ...

Tuning electron interactions in iron telluride selenide controls superconducting and topological phases, offering a pathway to more stable quantum computing. (Nanowerk News) Researchers at West ...

Artistic visualization of a crystalline rod made of the semimetal ZrTe 5. There is a heat gradient from one end to the other. In its center, giant oscillations in its heat conduction are toggled by ...
