Powerful machines known as accelerators allow physicists to study how the elements form and also to create new elements and atomic isotopes. RIKEN Nishina Center for Accelerator-Based Science Except ...

Researchers have demonstrated that the theoretically optimal scaling for magic state distillation—a critical bottleneck in ...

This year, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to John Clarke (University of California, Berkeley), Michel H. Devoret (Yale University and University of California, Santa Barbara) and John M.

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- When I was younger, my twin brother made a book cover for his physics book. On that cover, he wrote "Book Of Magic" on it. Mike was sort of right. Physics and magic can go hand in ...

Quantum computers have performed the full slate of tricks needed for robust computation. And it all came down to a little magic. In a pair of papers submitted June 17 at arXiv.org, researchers ...

Superconductors are like the express trains in a metro system. Any electricity that "boards" a superconducting material can ...

For the first time, scientists have created oxygen-28, a rare oxygen isotope that has 12 more neutrons than oxygen-16, the most common form of oxygen on the planet. This newly created "heavy" oxygen ...

Pablo Jarillo-Herrero tells Hamish Johnston about what happened next after his lab created magic-angle graphene and won the Physics World Breakthrough of the Year award in 2018 Latest twist Pablo ...

When two sheets of carbon atoms are twisted to the “magic” angle of 1.1 degrees, many properties of their electrons abruptly change, and the material — known as magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene — ...
