Direct visualization of quantum zero-point motion in complex molecule reveals eternal dance of atoms
Ultrashort, high-intensity X-ray laser pulses trigger controlled explosions of molecules—making it possible to capture high-resolution images of molecular structures. Credit: Till Jahnke / Goethe University Frankfurt Most of us find…
Scientists achieve direct measurement of quantum metric tensor in black phosphorus
Researchers have successfully measured the quantum metric tensor in solids for the first time. Credit: Keun Su Kim from Yonsei University Quantum distance refers to a measure of quantum mechanical…
Researchers discover universal rules of quantum entanglement across all dimensions
Quantum entanglement in 1+1 and 2+1 dimensions. Credit: Yuya Kusuki A team of theoretical researchers used thermal effective theory to demonstrate that quantum entanglement follows universal rules across all dimensions.…
New work achieves a pure quantum state without the need for cooling
Credit: CC0 Public Domain Three nano-glass spheres cling to one another. They form a tower-like cluster, similar to when you pile three scoops of ice cream on top of one…
Discovery of Planckian time limit opens doors to novel quantum technologies
Image of heavy electrons with quantum entanglement on CeRhSn. Credit: Takuto Nakamura and Shin-ichi Kimura A joint research team from Japan has observed “heavy fermions,” electrons with dramatically enhanced mass,…
Quantum framework offers new approach to analyzing complex network data
QTSP, which is at the core of ranking algorithms, processes higher-order data. This data is represented as graphs and transformed into other graphs. This is usually taxing for classical computers,…
A new look inside the BTZ black hole
When space becomes time: A new look inside the BTZ black hole. Credit: Elsevier Exploring the BTZ black hole in (2+1)-dimensional gravity took me down a fascinating rabbit hole, connecting…
