Findings at RHIC and LHC Help Better Understand Origins of the Universe

Actually, there is no reason either to go to your local theatre or to leave this galaxy for another one far away if you want to know what happened a long time ago in our universe.

Internal Tension Cracks Responsible for Formation of Celestial Bodies of Different Sizes

A Duke theorist says there's a very good reason why objects in the universe come in a wide variety of sizes, from the largest stars to the smallest dust motes -- and it has a lot to do with how paint cracks when it dries.

Study Results Help Better Understand Fundamental Aspects of Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics

The investigation and exploitation of light-matter-interaction in optical resonators is one of the central research topics in the Quantum Dynamics Division of Professor Gerhard Rempe, Director at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics in Garching. A couple of years ago, the team succeeded in creating single-photon emitters using single atoms stored in optical resonators.

Researchers Entangle Three Particles of Light in High-Dimensional Quantum Property

Researchers at the Institute of Quantum Optics and Quantum Information, the University of Vienna, and the Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona have achieved a new milestone in quantum physics: they were able to entangle three particles of light in a high-dimensional quantum property related to the 'twist' of their wavefront structure. The results from their experiment appear in the journal Nature Photonics.

Scientists Characterize Quantum Hall Effect in Photonic System

Light and matter are not totally different with regard to quantum physics. In specific situations, electrons that are negatively charged can combine together and form a coordinated dance permitting them to carry a current across an imperfect material. That motion, which takes place only if the electrons are restricted to a 2D plane, emerges as a result of a phenomenon referred to as the quantum Hall effect.
