A hidden quantum wave may keep particles moving, even when everything else freezes. Researchers discovered that phasons, a ...

The arrangement of small molecules—known as ligands—around transition metal atoms affects how the metal atoms behave. This is important because transition metals are used as catalysts in the synthesis ...

What happens when a quantum physicist is frustrated by the limitations of quantum mechanics when trying to study densely ...

Physicists have used a cutting-edge quantum computer to simulate a complex particle theory in two dimensions. Unlike ...
