Using conventional X-rays and lasers to detect the atomic state of hydrogen is challenging, given its small size. A group of researchers may have overcome this barrier by unveiling a new visualization ...

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

For more than a century, schoolbook physics has divided matter into neat categories like solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. A ...

(The Conversation is an independent and nonprofit source of news, analysis and commentary from academic experts.) Since the prize announcement, cheers and excitement have surrounded the home ...

The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to three scientists-Dr. John Clarke (Professor Emeritus, University of California ...

Ultracold atoms have successfully mimicked a fundamental quantum effect normally found in electronic circuits.

For the first time, scientists have observed the iconic Shapiro steps, a staircase-like quantum effect, in ultracold atoms.

In this video, we explore how Young's Modulus is related to the interatomic spring constant. Learn how materials deform under stress and how the microscopic forces between atoms affect the overall ...

(a) Comparison of the spatial and time resolutions between the conventional hydrogen detection techniques and the hydrogen visualization technique developed in this study. (b) A schematic of the ...
