As strange and unique as the laws of the quantum realm appear in our everyday experience, every now and then experiments catch sight of phenomena that seem both alien and yet eerily familiar. For the ...

An international group of researchers have investigated the role of memory in quantum systems and dynamics. Their findings ...

An international team of physicists has uncovered a subtle but important twist in how “memory” works in quantum systems.

A new three-volume study explores how quantum physics, gravitation and cosmology may be understood within a unified ...

The ability to conduct heat is one of the most fundamental properties of matter, crucial for engineering applications. Scientists know well how conventional materials, such as metals and insulators, ...

Over the past decades, energy engineers have developed increasingly advanced battery technologies that can store more energy, ...

There is a glaring gap in our knowledge of the physical world: none of our well-established theories describe gravity’s quantum nature. Yet physicists expect that this quantum nature is essential for ...

Artistic visualization of a crystalline rod made of the semimetal ZrTe 5. There is a heat gradient from one end to the other. In its center, giant oscillations in its heat conduction are toggled by ...
