For the first time, scientists have observed quantum entanglement in the momentum of massive particles. The result, decades ...

"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." What do atoms do when we’re not watching? It turns out they do exactly what we thought. Enigmatic because ...

A cloud of helium atoms split, scattered and fell under gravity, yet still behaved as if its parts were linked. That is the ...

Quantum physicists observed atoms entangled in motion for the first time, using helium atoms with mass and gravity, opening new ways to explore how quantum mechanics interacts with gravity. (Nanowerk ...

Physicists developed a technique to arrange atoms in much closer proximity than previously possible, down to 50 nanometers. The group plans to use the method to manipulate atoms into configurations ...

The images were taken using a technique developed by the team that first allows a cloud of atoms to move and interact freely. The researchers then turn on a lattice of light that briefly freezes the ...
