AN ATOM’S electrons are an ever-shifting quantum melee, but it turns out you can still take their photograph as if they were standing still. A quantum-style microscope has imaged the hydrogen atom’s ...

At low temperatures, hydrogen atoms move less like particles and more like waves. This characteristic enables quantum tunneling, the passage of an atom through a barrier with a higher potential energy ...

Using a scanning tunneling microscope equipped with a femtosecond terahertz laser, scientists have exploited the quantum properties of a two-atom hydrogen molecule to observe changes in the ...

We are at the beginning of a revolution. I’ve been going on about quantum computing for as long as I’ve been writing, but it has always been in the future tense. Nothing useful could be done as ...

Atoms of antimatter and matter are perfect mirror images, even when weird quantum phenomena come into play. The energy levels of antihydrogen atoms — the antimatter opposites of hydrogen atoms — are ...

Real-time X-ray scattering analysis reveals the synthesis mechanism of eco-friendly ternary quantum dots. (Nanowerk News) A research team led by Professors Yang Ji-woong and In Su-il of the Department ...

Quantum physics has put antihydrogen under pressure. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. A bubbling, raucous vacuum fills quantum ...
