A microscopic clump of sodium has become the largest object ever to be observed as a wave, improving upon previous records by ...

For a century, the Schrödinger equation has been the bedrock of quantum mechanics, successfully predicting how matter behaves as a wave. Yet, physics has lacked a fundamental explanation for why ...

A cluster of 7,000 sodium atoms has just been coaxed into behaving as a single, ghostly wave, stretching quantum weirdness ...

For the first time, physicists have watched a beam of positronium, a short‑lived atom made of an electron and its antimatter twin, behave like a rippling quantum wave instead of a stream of tiny ...

A sensitive matter-wave interferometer measuring moiré fringes offers force sensitivity comparable to quantum interference ...

A hundred years ago this week, at the height of the quantum revolution, Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger submitted a ...

Physicists at Heidelberg University have developed a new theory that finally unites two long-standing and seemingly incompatible views of how exotic particles behave inside quantum matter. In some ...

On 9 July 1925, Heisenberg sent a paper titled ‘Quantum-theoretical re-interpretation of kinematic and mechanical relations’ to Max Born, whom he was assisting at that time, and Born sent the paper to ...

For those who watch gravitational waves roll in from the universe, GW250114 is a big one. It's the clearest gravitational ...
