Physicists have engineered photons that behave as if they inhabit a space far richer than the familiar three dimensions, revealing light-like particles with a strikingly high-dimensional character. By ...

Electrons, negatively charged particles, sometimes coordinate their movements in ways that produce certain collective ...

The 10 students on the Centaurus team, who have dubbed themselves “Team Centauri Stars,” will travel in August to a lab in ...

A new computational analysis supports the idea that photons (a.k.a. particles of light) colliding with heavy ions can create a fluid of 'strongly interacting' particles. In a new paper, they show that ...

University of Chicago physicists have invented a “quantum flute” that, like the Pied Piper, can coerce particles of light to move together in a way that’s never been seen before. Assoc. Prof. David ...

The magnum opus of particle physics is far from complete, requiring physicists to devise many alternatives—some weirder than others. Reading time 5 minutes For all practical purposes, the Standard ...

Can darkness really travel faster than light? A surprising new physics experiment suggests it can—at least in a very unusual way. Scientists observed dark regions within light waves moving faster than ...

Power functional theory is a new approach that makes it possible to describe precisely the dynamics of many-particle systems over time. Physicists at the University of Bayreuth are among the ...
