Scientists have demonstrated that atoms can exhibit wave-like behavior, challenging long-held assumptions that experiments of this nature were impossible and opening new doors in quantum physics. The ...

Positronium shouldn't last long enough to be interesting. It's an "atom" assembled from an electron and its antimatter twin — ...

One of the defining breakthroughs that set quantum physics apart from classical physics was the realization that matter behaves very differently at ...

Quantum melting observed: Scientists melted electron crystals in tantalum sulfide, revealing a process similar to solid melting but affecting only electronic properties. Potential tech impact: ...

Researchers at Tokyo University of Science have, for the first time, observed quantum interference in a beam of positronium — an exotic atom made of an electron and its antimatter twin, the positron.

Accelerator-based high-energy electron diffraction determines 3D atomic structure of materials New method using ultrashort ...
