Physics fans are a lot like surfers. Both think waves are really fun. For surfers, it’s all about having a good time. For physicists, it’s about understanding some of nature’s most important physical ...

The control of matter motion at liquid–gas interfaces opens an opportunity to create two-dimensional materials with remotely tunable properties. In analogy with optical lattices used in ultra-cold ...

Scientists review research on gravitational wave detectors as a historical example of quantum technologies and examine the fundamental research on the connection between quantum physics and gravity.

The double-slit experiment is one of the most famous experiments in physics and definitely one of the weirdest. It demonstrates that matter and energy (such as light) can exhibit both wave and ...

New research published in Physical Review Letters suggests that superconducting magnets used in dark matter detection experiments could function as highly precise gravitational wave detectors, thereby ...

Have you ever gazed up at the sky and seen clouds that resemble waves in an ocean? These aren't your everyday fluffy cumulus clouds or storm clouds. These are gravity wave clouds -- a fascinating ...

Electron microscope image of the superfluid wave tank used in the experiments (blue) coupled to an optical fibre which brings laser light in and out of the device. The zoom-in shows the photonic ...

Investigating the wave properties of matter with vibrating molecules Date: February 19, 2021 Source: Heinrich-Heine University Duesseldorf Summary: Researchers used a novel, high-precision laser ...

WASHINGTON, March 15, 2022 -- Quantum physical experiments exploring the motion of macroscopic or heavy bodies under gravitational forces require protection from any environmental noise and highly ...
