Newly observed optical state could enable quantum computing with photons

Berkeley Lab scientists prepare for the installation of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument in Arizona

The experiment will send particles called muons—heavier cousins of the electron—around a 50-foot-wide muon storage ring that was relocated from Brookhaven National Laboratory in New York state in 2013

An international team of astrophysicists has released IllustrisTNG, the most advanced universe model of its kind

Scientists at Berkeley Lab use a new platform, called MAESTRO, to see microscale details in monolayer material’s electronic structure

The new findings demonstrated an increase in the rate at which the material conducts protons when it is simply illuminated with sunlight

A research consortium has been formed to test the limits of one of the core principles of quantum mechanics

A recent NASA study suggests that there may be another explanation for patterns in disks of dust and gas around young stars

New research shows how well scientists can predict the properties and functionality of materials, allowing us to explore their potential to be used in novel ways

Findings on how differently sized nuclei respond to spin offer new insight into mechanisms affecting particle production in proton-ion collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC)
