Using ultracold atoms and laser light, researchers recreated the behavior of a Josephson junction—an essential component of ...

Physicists have found a way to study the inner workings of Josephson junctions without using electronics at all.

The Aharonov-Bohm effect occupies a pivotal position in modern quantum theory, demonstrating that charged particles are influenced by electromagnetic potentials even in regions where the associated ...

This fall, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to John Clarke, Michel Devoret and John Martinis "for the discovery of macroscopic quantum ...

When a molecule of tryptophan absorbs ultraviolet light, it glows faintly as it releases energy at a lower frequency. This effect, called fluorescence, is well known. But something extraordinary ...
