When Gabriel Lippmann collected the 1908 Nobel Prize in Physics, he did so for an invention he himself admitted was of ...

Gabriel Lippmann received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1908 for a new method of colour photography that was never ...

This article explores how our understanding of the universe has evolved—from the scale of everyday experience down to the ...

Abstract: This paper presents an adaptive asymptotic observer-based approach for estimating the states and the atom-laser coupling constant (parameter) of a two-level, closed quantum system driven by ...

Max Planck, a name synonymous with the very beginnings of quantum physics, was a scientist who, while perhaps not seeking a revolution, certainly started one. He’s often called the father of quantum ...

Researchers at Hiroshima University have developed a realistic, highly sensitive method to detect the Unruh effect—a long-predicted phenomenon at the crossroads of relativity and quantum theory. Their ...

During his Ph.D. at UMass, Nikhil Malvankar was laser-focused on quantum mechanics and the movement of electrons in superconductors. Now a professor at Yale, the native of Mumbai, India, has pivoted ...

Stress is a very real factor in the structure of our universe. Not the kind of stress that students experience when taking a test, but rather the physical stresses that affect everyday objects.

Max Planck, born in Germany in 1858, is widely recognized as the father of quantum theory. His work fundamentally altered our understanding of the universe at its smallest scales, moving physics away ...
