Quantum dynamics provides the theoretical framework for understanding the evolution of quantum systems, wherein the effects of uncertainty and nonlinearity create rich, complex behaviours. Integral to ...

For more than 50 years, scientists have dreamed of seeing the hidden patterns that govern the motion of nonlinear waves—the unpredictable ripples that shape tsunamis, tides, and turbulent flows. Now, ...

Step inside the strange world of a superfluid, a liquid that can flow endlessly without friction, defying the common-sense rules we experience every day, where water pours, syrup sticks and coffee ...

(Nanowerk News) Lord Kelvin theorized in 1880 that stimulating a thin vortex line would produce a helical deformation, later known as a Kelvin wave. While these waves have been observed in classical ...

Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) have created a new and unusual state of matter—known as a supersolid—by ...

Researchers from Australia’s University of Queensland have made a microscopic “ocean” on a silicon chip to miniaturise the study of wave dynamics. The device, made at UQ’s School of Mathematics and ...

A supersolid is a paradoxical state of matter—it is rigid like a crystal but flows without friction like a superfluid. This exotic form of quantum matter has only recently been realized in dipolar ...
