The quantum world has a reputation for being elusive, but physicists are now starting to watch it unfold in real time. For ...

Where do you see patterns in chaos? It has been proven, in the incredibly tiny quantum realm, by an international team co-led by UC Santa Cruz physicist Jairo Velasco, Jr. In a new paper published on ...

Sebastian Mizera just joined the physics department as an assistant professor, researching quantum field theory.

(via Sabine Hossenfelder) Chaos doesn’t exist in the world of quantum physics, as quantum physics is a linear theory. So how come we observe chaos all around us? Researchers have now come one step ...

A team of scientists from Princeton University has measured the energies of electrons in a new class of quantum materials and has found them to follow a fractal pattern. Fractals are self-repeating ...

Physicists at MIT recreated the double-slit experiment using individual photons and atoms held in laser light, uncovering the true limits of light’s wave–particle duality. Their results proved ...

Professor Pan and his team recreated Einstein's thought experiment to demonstrate how the quantum world actually works.

Quantum mechanics is our most successful physical theory. Created to account for atomic phenomena, it has a vast range of applications extending well beyond the atomic realm, from predicting the ...

The famous double-slit experiment brings into question the very nature of matter. Its cousin, the quantum eraser experiment, ...

A century-old debate ends as physicists prove Einstein wrong using single photons to test quantum theory with unprecedented ...
