For more than a century, thermodynamics has described how heat flows and engines run, while quantum mechanics has ruled the strange behavior of atoms and photons. Physicists have long suspected that ...
Quantum mechanics controls reality on the smallest levels, but when scaled up, it’s often difficult to gauge how and why this realm matters in the practical world. That said, physicists will on ...
Disneyland for physicists: Breakthrough Prize honors scientists at world's largest particle collider
For these physicists at CU Boulder, searching for the unknown is a matter of speed. Over the last decade, researchers on campus, including dozens of graduate and undergraduate students, have taken ...
NATURE BRIEFING 14 May 2025 Daily briefing: These award-winning photos show scientists at work The best of scientists’ photos from the field. Plus, researchers are split about whether it’s OK for AI ...
A long-standing law of thermodynamics turns out to have a loophole at the smallest scales. Researchers have shown that quantum engines made of correlated particles can exceed the traditional ...
