Thomas Edison famously tried hundreds of materials and failed thousands of times before discovering that carbonized cotton thread burned long and bright in an incandescent light bulb. Experiments are often time-consuming (Edison’s team spent 14 […]

Despite steady improvements in quantum computers, they’re still noisy and error-prone, which leads to questionable or wrong answers. Scientists predict that they won’t truly outcompete today’s “classical” supercomputers for at least five or ten years, […]
A team led by Prof. Guo Guangcan, with the collaborative efforts from Wigner Research Centre for Physics, revealed a new approach to discovering a new spin defect with an excellent probability of 85% and achieved […]
A team of physicists, including University of Massachusetts assistant professor Tigran Sedrakyan, recently announced in the journal Nature that they have discovered a new phase of matter. Called the “chiral Bose-liquid state,” the discovery opens […]
When two heavy ions collide at very high relativistic energies, they penetrate one another, during which they become excited and are slowed down. This “stopping” process can be generated experimentally, as demonstrated on the Large […]
Quantum oscillations (QOs) of conductance in the magnetic field are widely observed in mesoscopic devices thanks to the Landau quantization, and thus QOs are commonly used as a powerful tool to measure the Fermi surface […]
A point-to-point long-distance quantum key distribution (QKD) over a distance of 1,002 km has been achieved by scientists from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), […]
A team led by Prof. Guo Guangcan from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) provides a comprehensive overview of the progress achieved in the field of quantum teleportation. The team, which includes Prof. Hu Xiaomin, […]
A group of physicists at the University of Basel, in Switzerland, has found via experimentation that the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox still holds even when scaled up. Paolo Colciaghi, Yifan Li, Philipp Treutlein and Tilman Zibold describe […]
An international research team has succeeded for the first time in measuring the electron spin in matter—i.e., the curvature of space in which electrons live and move—within “kagome materials,” a new class of quantum materials. […]
