Scientists have made the first experimental observation of matter wave diffraction in a short-lived electron-positron atom.

Researchers have shown that surprisingly large metal particles can behave according to quantum mechanics, existing in ...

Even for scientists who have dedicated their lives to understanding gravity, the force’s relentless downward pull is sometimes a drag. Consider, for instance, the researchers who study Bose-Einstein ...

Physicists have put thousands of atoms into a "Schrödinger's cat" state — smashing the record for the most macroscopic object to be observed in a quantum state. In a new study, researchers observed ...

Physicists have proposed a way to extract the internal quantum states of electron wave packets by analyzing how those packets ...

Can a small lump of metal be in a quantum state that extends over distant locations? A research team at the University of Vienna answers this question with a resounding yes. In the journal Nature, ...
