In 1927, Oppenheimer published a paper called “On the Quantum Theory of Molecules” with his research adviser Max Born. This paper outlined what is commonly referred to as the Born-Oppenheimer ...
Two landmark quantum experiments have sharpened one of the oldest arguments in modern physics, and the verdict is not kind to ...
Physicists have long treated space and time as the stage on which quantum particles perform, not as actors in the drama ...
In a scientific breakthrough, an international research team has developed a quantum sensor capable of detecting minute magnetic fields at the atomic length scale. This pioneering work realizes a long ...
Almost exactly 200 years ago, French physicist Sadi Carnot determined the maximum efficiency of heat engines. The Carnot ...
Two physicists at the University of Stuttgart have proven that the Carnot principle, a central law of thermodynamics, does not apply to objects on the atomic scale whose physical properties are linked ...
(Nanowerk News) In a scientific breakthrough, an international research team from Germany's Forschungszentrum Jülich and Korea's IBS Center for Quantum Nanoscience (QNS) developed a quantum sensor ...
Excerpt: Researchers at Raman Research Institute demonstrate a technique revealing local atom density while preserving the ...
A comparative illustration of the performance between a conventional STM image (left) and an image obtained with the developed quantum sensor (right). When observing atoms with a conventional STM, ...
One hundred years ago, physicists including Max Born, Niels Bohr, Werner Heisenberg, and Erwin Schrödinger theorized the foundations of quantum mechanics, unlocking atomic and subatomic secrets, ...
