We live in a world of matter – because matter overtook antimatter, though they were both created in equal amounts by the Big Bang when our universe began.

As featured on the cover of Nature on 16 April 2020, neutrinos and the associated…

Nowadays, modern quantum simulators offer a wide range of possibilities to prepare and investigate complex quantum states.

They are realized with ultracold atoms in optical lattices, Rydberg atoms, trapped ions or superconducting…

Microscopic minerals excavated from an ancient outcrop of Jack Hills, in Western Australia, have been the subject of intense geological study, as they seem to bear traces of the Earth’s magnetic field reaching as far back as 4.2 billion years…

Using a combination of experimental and computational data, researchers discover paths to optimize pulses from highly intense X-ray beams.

Scientists have long pursued the ability to see the structure of a single, free-form molecule at atomic…

The Belle II experiment has been collecting data from physical measurements for about one year now.

After several years of rebuilding work, both the SuperKEKB electron-positron accelerator and the Belle II detector have been improved compared with…

Since its beginnings, quantum mechanics hasn’t ceased to amaze us with its peculiarity, so difficult to understand.

Why does one particle seem to pass through two slits simultaneously? Why instead of specific predictions can we only talk about…

A discovery by a team of researchers led by UMass Lowell nuclear physicists could change how atoms are understood by scientists and help explain extreme phenomena in outer space.

The breakthrough by the researchers revealed that a symmetry that…

New measurements confirm, to the highest energies yet explored, that the laws of physics hold no matter where you are or how fast you’re moving.

Observations of record-breaking gamma rays prove the robustness of Lorentz Invariance – a piece of…

Scientists seeking to bring the fusion that powers the sun and stars to Earth must deal with sawtooth instabilities — up-and-down swings in the central pressure and temperature of the plasma that fuels fusion reactions, similar to the serrated…
