Classical physics theories suggest that when two or more electromagnetic waves interfere destructively (i.e., with their ...

Project Eleven is offering 1 BTC to the first team or individual that can break Bitcoin’s ECC using a quantum computer. It’s ...

A major focus of this research is how electrons behave in novel quantum materials crucial for future technologies, but our work also crosscuts with atomic, molecular and optical physics; high energy ...

Testing times A toy model from Marco Pettini seeks to reconcile quantum entanglement with Einstein’s theory of relativity. (Courtesy: Shutterstock/Eugene Ivanov) Nonlocal correlations that define ...

This course gives an introduction to quantum mechanics, which describes the physics of systems at small scales where experimental behavior cannot be explained by classical mechanics. You will learn ...

This text on quantum mechanics begins by covering all the main topics of an introduction to the subject. It then concentrates on newer developments. In particular it continues with the perturbative ...

The courses for physics students tend to focus on the fundamentals and formal background, rather than on application, and do not fill the need. This invaluable text has been designed to fill the very ...

In the last years of his life, probably around 1844, great polish poet Juliusz Słowacki [1809-1849] wrote a mystical prose poem ...

An art project called the Goodbye Line prompts passersby to make a collect call and say goodbye — to a loved one, a pet or maybe a part of themselves. People are dialing.
