A unique new semiconductor, rhenium disulfide, that behaves electronically as if it were a 2-D monolayer even as a 3-D bulk material has been discovered by researchers. This not only opens the door to ...

Long-range couplings between lattice sites algorithmically speed up the efficiency of quantum walks. Scientists in China ...

Physicists have identified a new superfluid phase in a class of quantum systems that, until recently, looked too unstable and ...

An optical atomic clock that, if left running for the entire life of the universe, would neither gain nor lose more than 100 ms has been created by physicists in the US and Italy. The device has a ...

Demonic action: each row shows the five planes of a 5x5x5 optical lattice. The top row shows the initial random configuration of atoms. The middle and bottom rows show the progression towards having ...

Two physicists just snagged $3 million for helping develop a super-precise clock that could allow scientists to study and explore the universe like never before. Hidetoshi Yatori and Jun Ye won the ...

The arrival of the enormous electromagnet at Fermilab for the Muon g-2 experiment. The magnet was constructed and used at Brookhaven in the 1990s and early 2000s, but was shipped across the country ...
