In the world of quantum computing, the Hilbert space dimension—the measure of the number of quantum states that a quantum ...

MIT scientists have snapped the first-ever images of individual atoms interacting freely in space, making visible the elusive ...

Until now, atoms have never been imaged interacting freely in space, but a new technique known as non-resolved microscopy has ...

Physicists have used a novel technique to observe individual atoms interacting in free space for the first time ever. The new technique confirms a century-old quantum mechanical theory.

Physicists captured the first images of individual atoms freely interacting in space. The pictures reveal correlations among the 'free-range' particles that until now were predicted but never directly ...

Bright idea: Wolfgang Ketterle (in his M.I.T lab) hopes to discover new forms of matter by studying ultracold atoms. Richard Howard Where's the coldest spot in the universe? Not on the moon ...

Scientists have just snapped pictures of single atoms as they move around freely, capturing details once hidden from sight.

A particle that lacks the energy to climb a barrier can still appear on the far side, a curiosity known as “quantum tunneling ...

MIT physicists have taken the first-ever direct images of individual atoms interacting freely in space. Their findings, ...

By patterning wires directly over the chip window it becomes possible to produce samples of ultracold atoms extremely close to a surface with high numerical aperture optical access. Below is an ...
