Ultrafast star escapes black hole
Galactic nuclei are the cores of galaxies, groups of thousands to millions of stars that are held together by gravity. As stars in the nucleus are so close together, interactions readily occur. view more (2006-10-05)
University of Oklahoma Researchers Discover Giant Rydberg Atom Molecules
A group of University of Oklahoma researchers led by Dr. James P. Shaffer, Homer L. Dodge Department of Physics and Astronomy, have discovered giant Rydberg molecules with a bond as large as a red blood cell. view more (2009-06-25)
Tiny avalanche photodiodes target bioterrorism agents
After the anthrax attacks in the United States in 2001 the threat of a larger and more deadly bioterrorism attack - perhaps from smallpox, plague or tularemia - became very real. But the ability to detect such biological agents and rapidly contain an attack is still being developed. view more (2005-09-14)
'Racetrack' for fast electrons in semiconductor structures
In order to realize the electrical units of voltage, resistance and current with highest accuracy quantum effects in nano-circuits are nowadays used. Important prerequisites are extremely pure semiconductor layers where high-mobile electrons move through the crystal without collision with residual impurities. view more (2008-08-29)
Atoms don't dance the 'bose nova'
Hanns-Christoph Naegerl's research group has investigated how ultracold quantum gases behave in lower spatial dimensions. They successfully realized an exotic state, where, due to the laws of quantum mechanics, atoms align along a one-dimensional structure. view more (2009-09-04)
Code for unbreakable quantum encryption generated at record speed over fiber
Raw code for 'unbreakable' encryption, based on the principles of quantum physics, has been generated at record speed over optical fiber at the Commerce Department's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). view more (2006-04-19)
The Max-Planck Research Prize 2003 rewards an INTAS grantee
INTAS is pleased to congratulate Prof. Klaas Bergmann who, on 26 November 2003, as well as 11 other scientists from Germany, United States, Israel and Canada, won a Max-Planck Research Prize 2003 (Max Planck Forschungspreis fuer Internationale Kooperation 2003). This prize rewards a scientist who carried out, with his co-workers at the University... view more... (2003-12-16)
Computers Can Boost Literacy
Computers do not spell the demise of literacy -- in fact, they may help to create one of the most literate and engaged generations the world has seen. view more (2009-06-18)
A Single-Photon Server with Just One Atom
Every time you switch on a light bulb, 10 to the power of 15 (a million times a billion) visible photons, the elementary particles of light, are illuminating the room in every second. If that is too many for you, light a candle. view more (2007-03-13)
New quantum state: two electrons trapped in an excited atom
Researchers from Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and the University of Salamanca have discovered a method to generate a new quantum phenomenon which had never been explored until now: simultaneous trapping of two particules between two excited energy states. The research, reported in Physical Review Letters may have important applications... view more... (2002-01-23)
True randomness upon request
The number of applications requiring random numbers increases continuously. They are used for example in cryptographic applications to guarantee the secrecy of electronic communications, in scientific calculations or in chance games and lotteries. In spite of this, their generation remains a difficult task. The Group of Applied Physics and the... view more... (2004-03-17)
Laser-cooling brings large object near absolute zero
Using a laser-cooling technique that could one day allow scientists to observe quantum behavior in large objects, MIT researchers have cooled a coin-sized object to within one degree of absolute zero. view more (2007-04-09)
Ape computers introduced in the U.S.: European, American and Japanese supercomputing compared
Ape computers will be introduced in the Usa on May 19th and 20th during the meeting "Supercomputer for Science across the Atlantic" that will be held by the Italian Embassy in Washington. view more (2005-05-16)
Quantum Systems Could Flout Physics Law
Scientists in the Weizmann Institute's Faculty of Chemistry, together with colleagues in Germany, have made a startling prediction: Simply 'taking the temperature' of certain quantum systems at frequent intervals might cause them to disobey a hard and fast rule of thermodynamics. view more (2008-06-03)
'Smart' nanoprobes light up disease
Researchers from Rice University's Center for Biological and Environmental Nanotechnology (CBEN) have developed a "smart" beacon hundreds of times smaller than a human cell that is programmed to light up only when activated by specific proteases. view more (2005-08-02)
Quantum Evolution - The New Science of Life
A clue to understanding life is the realisation that its dynamics are different than those that rule the non-living. For inanimate objects, the dynamics we see are the product of the disordered motion of billions of particles; they are a kind of average dynamics. At the macroscopic level we see patterns and order, but at the molecular level there... view more... (2000-01-31)
Magnetic transistor could 'dial in' quantum effects
A team of theoretical and experimental physicists from Rice University is preparing a unique probe in hopes of "dialing in" elusive quantum states called "quantum criticalities." view more (2005-12-13)
UA scientists discover quantum fingerprints of chaos
Chaotic behavior is the rule, not the exception, in the world we experience through our senses, the world governed by the laws of classical physics. view more (2009-10-08)
New paper offers insights into 'blinking' phenomena
A new paper by a team of researchers led by University of Notre Dame physicist Bolizsár Jankó provides an overview of research into one of the few remaining unsolved problems of quantum mechanics. view more (2008-07-02)
Quantum Device Traps, Detects and Manipulates the Spin of Single Electrons
A novel device, developed by a team led by University at Buffalo engineers, simply and conveniently traps, detects and manipulates the single spin of an electron, overcoming some major obstacles that have prevented progress toward spintronics and spin-based quantum computing. view more (2007-09-28)
