Quantum sensors have become important tools in low-energy particle physics. Michael Doser explores opportunities to exploit ...

Is black a colour? Black isn’t in the rainbow, but where does it fit in the colour spectrum? What makes something appear ...

An attosecond—or 0.000000000000000001 second—is no time at all for a person. That is not so for electrons, atoms and ...

Knowable Magazine reports on attosecond science, revealing how scientists study atomic interactions at unbelievable speeds to ...

Max Planck really got the ball rolling for quantum physics by introducing the idea of energy coming in tiny packets, or ...

Excitons—bound pairs of electrons and an electron hole—are quasiparticles that can arise in solids. While so-called "bright" ...

Quantum technologies, systems that operate leveraging quantum mechanical effects, have the potential to outperform classical ...

The IceCube neutrino detector has allowed researchers to resolve a debate about what types of particles make up ...

A team from Laval University in Quebec has sent 1Tbit/s down an optical fibre used micro ring resonators on silicon to modulate the data. "Unlike ...

Light is everywhere, and it's made of photons,tiny particles that move at the speed of light through space, traveling vast distances in an instant. When you turn on a light in a room, photons begin to ...

TSMC's liquid cooling; copper supply risks; EU's new GenAI rules; SIA's state of the industry report; GF acquires MIPS; ...

We study the influence of the locations of energy thresholds on the basis image noise in spectral X-ray imaging using photon counting devices. Our simulations assume photon counting detectors equipped ...
