One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the observation that matter behaves differently at the smallest scales. A key ...

Does quantum mechanics really reflect nature in its truest form, or is it just our imprecise way of describing the weird properties of the very small? A famous test that can help answer this question ...

Extremely cold atoms have been nudged to self-magnify their quantum states so they can be imaged in unprecedented detail. This could help researchers better understand what quantum particles do in odd ...
