For more than a century, modern physics has rested on two towering frameworks that do not quite agree with each other.

Gravity is supposed to be the most familiar force in nature, yet at the deepest level it remains the least understood. A bold new line of research now argues that gravity is not fundamental at all, ...

A collaboration between Stuart Parkin's group at the Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics in Halle (Saale) and Claudia Felser's group at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of ...

Random geometry and quantum gravity represent interwoven themes at the frontier of modern mathematical physics. These fields examine the stochastic nature of geometric structures that underpin quantum ...

Scientists uncovered hidden geometry that distorts electron paths like gravity bends light, advancing quantum materials for faster data and lossless conduction. (Nanowerk News) How can data be ...

A quantum state of matter has appeared in a material where physicists thought it would be impossible, forcing a rethink on the conditions that govern the behaviors of electrons in certain materials.

In a remarkable leap for quantum physics, researchers in Japan have uncovered how weak magnetic fields can reverse tiny electrical currents in kagome metals—quantum materials with a woven atomic ...

Scientists have created 3D printed surfaces featuring intricate textures that can be used to bounce unwanted gas particles away from quantum sensors, allowing useful particles like atoms to be ...

Quantum metric spaces extend the classical notion of metric spaces into the noncommutative realm by utilising operator algebras and associated seminorms to capture geometric structure in settings ...

Physicists found electrons synchronizing in star-shaped Kagome crystals, showing geometry can tune quantum behavior and shape material function. (Nanowerk News) Physicists at the Max Planck Institute ...

How can data be processed at lightning speed, or electricity conducted without loss? To achieve this, scientists and industry alike are turning to quantum materials, governed by the laws of the ...
