For the first time, a quantum radiation reaction in strong electromagnetic fields has been demonstrated experimentally by ...

Scientists observe a visible time crystal for the first time, revealing a phase of matter that repeats patterns through time.

Physicists have forced light to behave like electrons trapped in a magnetic field, reproducing the quantum Hall effect with photons for the first time. The experiment, carried out on an optical fiber ...

Quantum physics is the realm of the strange. And one of the strangest discoveries in the field is also one of the most fundamental: Particles fired at barriers with two slits in them can act like ...

Physicists at the UK’s Central Laser Facility have recorded the first observation of quantum radiation reaction, detecting how electrons lose energy in ways that classical physics cannot explain when ...

A team of physicists has uncovered a hidden topological structure within one of the most widely used sources of quantum entanglement.

Scientists have achieved a historic first using lasers to study electron behaviour, revealing new insights into how light ...
