This year is the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology. Proclaimed by the UN, it celebrates the centenary of ...

Werner Heisenberg submitted a paper to Zeitschrift für Physik entitled ‘On quantum-theoretical reinterpretation of kinematic and mechanical relationships’, thus giving birth to quantum mechanics. In ...

Spectroscopic data on alkali-atom dimers residing on the surface of liquid helium nanodroplets have revealed that they are detected primarily in the weakly bound, metastable, spin-triplet state. Here, ...

The weird paradox of Schrödinger’s cat has found a lasting popularity. What does it mean for the future of quantum physics?

This idea puts a morbid twist on quantum theory, suggesting that a copy of you may remain alive, no matter what.

When Heisenberg suggested, for instance, that a particular radium atom emitting an electron is an example of an ... “With one foot squarely on Kant’s turf and the other squarely on Bohr’s and ...

In RIT’s physics degree, you’ll gain an in-depth understanding of the basic principles governing the structure and behavior of matter, the generation and transfer of energy, and the interactions of ...

Why matter dominates over antimatter in our universe has long been a major cosmic mystery to physicists. A new finding by the world's largest particle collider has revealed a clue.
