A research team has successfully fine-tuned the Rabi oscillation of polaritons, quantum composite particles, by leveraging ...

The new phase comes in the form of a pattern of electron spins—half of which are highly ordered, or "cold", and the rest of ...

In a groundbreaking study, scientists at Brookhaven National Lab uncovered a new phase of matter dubbed "half ice, half fire" ...

Superfluidity is a quantum mechanical effect that occurs at temperatures near absolute zero. As the temperatures of certain fluids approach this value, they undergo a transition to a zero-viscosity ...

There is even a connection to black-hole physics. We do hope you enjoy reading this Focus on quantum phase transitions, as well as our regular array of papers on cold atoms and molecules ...

The phase is a never-before-seen pattern of electron spins—the tiny "up" and "down ... able to understand and control the transitions between those states—are central problems in the fields of ...

Phase transitions are familiar occurrences, such as the freezing of water to ice. When the transition occurs at zero temperature, it is known as a 'quantum phase transition'. As distinct states of ...

The proposed 91-kilometer collider could be up and running by the 2040s, but it won't perform high-energy physics until 2070.

Researchers from the Institute of Solid State Physics, the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of ...

Theoretical Physics, thermodynamics and statistical mechanics of condensed matter systems: exact calculations involving the two-dimensional Ising model, solid-liquid transitions in systems of small ...

Electrons have a property called spin, which is akin to the angular momentum, like that of a spinning top. They can point in ...

Predicting precisely the pressure and temperature, i.e., the boiling point, at which this basic phase transition occurs provides a comprehensive picture of the underlying physics and an ...
