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 Effects Make the Difference
The atomic constituents of matter are never still, even at absolute zero (-273.15 degrees Celsius). This consequence of quantum mechanics can result in continuous transition between different material states. Physicists at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids have studied this phenomenon using ytterbium, rhodium and silicon at... view more... (2007-03-05)
ESA takes steps toward quantum communications
A team of European scientists has proved within an ESA study that the weird quantum effect called 'entanglement' remains intact over a distance of 144 kilometres. view more (2007-06-13)
Stanford researchers hear the sound of quantum drums
Forty years ago, mathematician Mark Kac asked the theoretical question, "Can one hear the shape of a drum?" view more (2008-02-11)
'Dead time' limits quantum cryptography speeds
Quantum cryptography is potentially the most secure method of sending encrypted information, but does it have a speed limit" According to a new paper by researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the Joint Quantum Institute (JQI), technological and security issues will stall maximum transmission rates at... view more...

Diamonds may be the ultimate MRI probe, say Quantum physicists
Diamonds, it has long been said, are a girl's best friend. But a research team including a physicist from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has recently found that the gems might turn out to be a patient's best friend as well. view more (2009-09-23)
UCLA physicists create world's smallest incandescent lamp
In an effort to explore the boundary between thermodynamics and quantum mechanics - two fundamental yet seemingly incompatible theories of physics - a team from the UCLA Department of Physics and Astronomy has created the world's smallest incandescent lamp. view more (2009-05-07)
Physicists control the flip of electron spin in new study
Today's computers and other technological gizmos operate on electronic charges, but researchers predict that a new generation of smaller, faster, more efficient devices could be developed based on another scientific concept - electronic "spin.‚Ä? The problem, however, is that researchers have found it challenging to control or predict spin -... view more... (2005-05-27)
Field experiment on a robust hierarchical metropolitan quantum cryptography network
Key Laboratory of Quantum Information (CAS), University of Science and Technology of China has recently demonstrated a metropolitan Quantum Cryptography Network (QCN) for Government Administration in Wuhu, China. Because of its scientific significance and social impact, the project is reported in Volume 54, Issue 17 (September, 2009) of the... view more... (2009-10-16)
Quantum goes massive
An astrophysics experiment in America has demonstrated how fundamental research in one subject area can have a profound effect on work in another as the instruments used for the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) pave the way for quantum experiments on a macroscopic scale. view more (2009-07-16)
Phantom parent molecule of important class of chemical compounds isolated for first time
A team of scientists from the University of Georgia and two European universities has, for the first time, synthesized and characterized the elusive parent molecule of an important class of chemical compounds. view more (2008-06-12)
'Tornadoes' are transferred from light to sodium atoms
For the first time, tornado-like rotational motions have been transferred from light to atoms in a controlled way at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). view more (2006-11-10)
New record for information storage and retrieval lifetime advances quantum networks
Physicists have taken a significant step toward creation of quantum networks by establishing a new record for the length of time that quantum information can be stored in and retrieved from an ensemble of very cold atoms. view more (2008-12-08)
Researchers untangle quantum quirk
Quantum computing has been hailed as the next leap forward for computers, promising to catapult memory capacity and processing speeds well beyond current limits. Several challenging problems need to be cracked, however, before the dream can be fully realized. view more (2008-06-11)
Physicists demonstrate storage and retrieval of single photons between remote memories
A series of publications in the journal Nature highlights the race among competing research groups toward the long-anticipated goal of quantum networking. view more (2005-12-08)
First Bose-Einstein condensation of strontium
In an international first, scientists from the Institute of Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI) produced a Bose-Einstein condensate of the alkaline-earth element strontium, thus narrowly winning an international competition between many first-rate scientific groups view more (2009-11-10)
New device from CU physicist tests uncertainty principle to unprecedented level — and shows that looks can cool
In the submicroscopic world - the domain of elementary particles and individual atoms - things behave in the strange, counter-intuitive fashion governed by the principles of quantum mechanics. view more (2006-09-25)
A tiny, tunable well of light, and a string theorist's toolbox
Photonics, the science of using photons to carry information, promises to continue improving a wide variety of technologies, from computing to high-speed communication. view more (2009-09-21)
Caltech physicists detect entanglement of one photon shared among four locations
Scientists at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) have developed an efficient method to detect entanglement shared among multiple parts of an optical system. view more (2009-05-11)
