For the first time, scientists have demonstrated that negative refraction can be achieved using atomic arrays—without the ...

Now, researchers in Australia say they have devised a method of encoding quantum information that makes the accumulation of ...

Scientists have developed a new method for measuring temperature extremely accurately by using giant 'Rydberg' atoms. This atomic thermometer provides accurate measurements 'out of the box,' without ...

Quantum computing remains something of a holy grail in the world of technology: it promises a huge leap in computing power, but only if someone can figure out how to square away the fault rates that ...

But a team of scientists say that, by using an antimony atom and the Schrödinger's Cat thought experiment, they could have found a way to stop them. When you purchase through links on our site ...

“Fast atoms have advantages for detecting gravitational waves compared to cold-atom experiments and might give rise to new multi-dimensional interferometers.” Darren lives in Portland, has a ...

Now, researchers at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) have brought a twist to the famous Schrödinger’s cat thought experiment, using a heavy atom and a silicon chip to address one of the ...

“In our work, the ‘cat’ is an atom of antimony,” says Xi Yu, lead author of the paper. “Antimony is a heavy atom, which possesses a large nuclear spin, meaning a large magnetic dipole. The spin of ...
