Macroscopic Quantum Superpositions via Dynamics in a Wide Double-Well Potential

Researchers find superlubricity defies normal friction laws: friction on atomic-smooth surfaces like graphene isn't weight-dependent but governed by thermal fluctuations

Experiments verify a theory that explains why polymer solutions like paint doesn’t dry any faster on a dry day than on a wet day

Nuclear Ground State Of Beryllium-10 Has A Molecule-Like Structure

A first-principles model correctly predicts high-temperature superconducting properties and suggests a parameter that determines Tc in any high-temperature superconductor

Scientists have learned to initiate superconducting currents using "liquid light." This refers to exciton-polaritons, hybrid particles formed through the interaction of light and matter, possessing properties of both light and material particles simultaneously.

In 1938, German physicist Fritz London proposed that superfluidity is linked to the congregation of atoms into the same quantum state: a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC)
