When intense quantum light knocks electrons out of atoms, the statistics of the light can be transferred to the electrons.

Pairing superconducting qubits with microwave cavities could reduce the hardware requirements for quantum simulations of fundamental physics.

Neutrino astronomy and the effort to build a cubic-kilometer-sized detector at the South Pole are recognized by the 2026 ...

Julian Klein and Frances Ross explain how electron microscopes are becoming tools for engineering defects inside crystalline materials.

The discovery of a thermal version of the Hall effect in common semiconductors challenges our understanding of how magnetic ...

A simplified model of the heart’s mitral valve shows that flow fluctuations can cause a soft valve to close at about one-tenth the pressure required under steady flow. Figure 1: High-speed images show ...

Pairs of photons provide a gentle way to measure the impact of a molecule’s environment on its ultrafast dynamics.

The shape of gold nanostructures changes depending on how they are imaged. This electron-microscope image shows a nanosized cube wrapped in a gold layer. The tiny package is the result of reactions ...

Simplified models of systems with fast and slow dynamics can miss a narrow region of phase space—a “singular funnel”—leading to misleading predictions of the system’s behavior. Figure 1: Systems ...
