Never settling into a fixed shape but constantly shifting around, these so-called intrinsically disordered proteins are key to countless biological functions like cross-linking molecules, sensing, or ...

A team of physicists say they have found a way to sidestep Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, one of the more troublesome and irritating rules of our universe. Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, for ...

Physicist Arvind Murugan earns Schmidt Science Polymath award for work at intersection of physics, biology, computation and materials science ...

Bloch oscillations are periodic oscillations of quantum particles in a repeating energy "landscape" (e.g., a crystal lattice) that are subjected to a constant force. These particle motions have been ...

Quantum physics books can seem overwhelming, but they don’t have to be. Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been curious for a while, the right book can make all the difference. This list ...

Until now, holograms have been created using lasers, but now researchers have used a new ensemble of components that could unleash this technology on the market. With their ubiquity in science fiction ...

For decades, quantum computing has felt like something out of science fiction — abstract, theoretical, and always “10 years away.” But in 2025, the story has changed. Quantum technology is no longer ...

For centuries, scientific progress has depended on more precise tools for measuring the world around us. Galileo’s telescope revealed Jupiter’s moons and shook the geocentric universe.

Artificial intelligence models have improved weather forecasting, but their inner workings are largely opaque. A new approach could make their predictions more interpretable by scientists.

Virtual particles exploit the natural fuzziness of the subatomic world, where if these ephemeral particles live briefly enough, they can also briefly borrow their energy from empty space. The haziness ...

Chatbots like ChatGPT and Claude have experienced a meteoric rise in usage over the past three years because they can help you with a wide range of tasks. Whether you're writing Shakespearean sonnets, ...
