Collective behavior is an unusual phenomenon in condensed-matter physics. When quantum spins interact together as a system, ...

When quantum spins interact, they can produce collective behaviors that defy long-standing expectations. Researchers have now shown that the Kondo effect behaves very differently depending on spin ...

Electrons are usually described as particles, but in a rare quantum material, that picture completely breaks down ...

In a quiet corner of low-temperature physics, researchers have stumbled on a phase of matter that seems to break one of the ...

Topological materials could usher in a new age of electronics, but scientists are still discovering surprising aspects of ...

Quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, could reliably tackle various ...

Light can do more than illuminate a material. In some cases, it can temporarily change how electrons move through it.

Quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, are expected to outperform ...

A team from UNIGE shows that it is possible to determine the state of a quantum system from indirect measurements when it is coupled to its environment.

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, ...

Pokémon Go looks set to add another battle currency to the ever-popular mobile game, this time focused around raids for Mega ...

An atmospheric scientist at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), a part of The University of Alabama System, has ...
