Infleqtion, a global leader in quantum sensing and quantum computing, develops atom-based quantum technology for commercial and government applications. Infleqtion is proud to announce the induction ...

Three different papers by three different groups on the same theme back-to-back in Nature? That is unusual. Yes, which is why they caught my eye. The papers all look rather interesting: they are about ...

Physicists at MIT have succeeded in getting "quantum tornadoes" to form in clouds of ultracold atoms, according to a recent paper published in the journal Nature. This is the first direct, in situ ...

Power of three: Schematic image showing ultracold triatomic molecules forming by associating diatomic molecules and atoms. (Courtesy: Bo Zhao/USTC) Researchers in China have found strong evidence of ...

A team of physicists has reported the observation of an SPT phase for ultracold atoms using atomic quantum simulation. This work opens the way to expanding the scope of SPT physics with ultracold ...

Remarkably, the atoms were able to cross this barrier collectively and without energy loss, behaving as if the barrier were transparent, thanks to quantum tunneling. As the oscillating current flowed ...

The field of optical atomic clocks, in combination with ultracold atoms, has transformed precision timekeeping and metrology. By utilising laser-cooled atoms confined in optical lattices, researchers ...

Researchers have used the coldest systems in the universe to realize in the laboratory gauge theories, key models of modern physics that describe the fundamental forces of Nature and the behavior of ...

When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. Researchers experimenting with ultracold atoms have observed behavior that bears a striking ...

Everything in our universe is made up of atoms, from the human body to the air we breathe. Based on existing theoretical models, a unit contains three smaller subatomic particles, namely protons, ...

Q: What happens to the world when you get down to really low temperatures, and why is that of interest to you? Luis Orozco: Probably the most important thing that low temperature brings us is that ...
