Of all the possible ways for the universe to end, the one that is the most concerning is known as False Vacuum Decay. While ...

Quantum physics once shocked scientists by revealing that particles can behave like waves—and now, that strange behavior has ...

Scientists have observed “bending” atoms using a crystal grating—an experiment once believed impossible at the high energies required. The authors of a new, non-peer reviewed study detail how the a ...

NASA astronauts aboard the International Space Station are expanding space-based quantum research using the Cold Atom Lab, which cools atoms to near absolute zero for unprecedented precision studies.

NASA’s Expedition 74 crew has enhanced the International Space Station’s Cold Atom Lab, enabling more precise quantum experiments in microgravity to study general relativity and dark matter. The ...

UC Santa Barbara researchers are working to move cold atom quantum experiments and applications from the laboratory tabletop to chip-based systems, opening new possibilities for sensing, precision ...

Cold atom experiments trap atoms to probe quantum effects, enabling ultra-precise sensing, timekeeping, and monitoring of Earth and space phenomena. (Nanowerk News) Cold atom experiments are among the ...
