For the first time, scientists have demonstrated that negative refraction can be achieved using atomic arrays—without the ...

Understanding atom-light interaction in multi-level settings is an extremely difficult problem, and up to now it has eluded both theorists and experimentalists. Rey explains, "However, it can be ...

The dreamy ‘watermelon’ aurora borealis danced above South Indian Lake, Manitoba, on the evening of Wednesday,2. Rj Roldan captured this timelapse video and posted it to X with the caption, “Witnessed ...

Light, Atom said, basically plays an essential part in good photography. He showed samples of his photos where a contrasting ...

Scientists have found a way to achieve negative refraction—where light bends the "wrong" way—using carefully arranged atomic arrays instead of engineered metamaterials. This breakthrough has enormous ...

The short answer is; no. We will never see atoms using visible light, simply because the wavelength of visible light (around 400 to 700 nanometers) is larger than the size of an atom (around 0.1 to ...

A technology once feared too error-prone to underlie a quantum computer is hitting the big time.

In simple terms, that assertion is correct, but for those with an expertise in the field, the longer answer to who did it ...

Using a process known as quantum annealing, the researchers have provided a proof-of-concept method to study the dynamics of ...

For the first time, researchers have been able to measure the quantum state of electrons ejected from atoms that have absorbed high-energy light ...
