Researchers have developed an incredibly sensitive method for measuring the potential energy of an atom

A new study confirms that as atoms are chilled and squeezed to extremes, their ability to scatter light is suppressed

A nuclear mystery has been solved thanks to collaboration between theorists and experimentalists

Scientists have now detected a previously unknown quantum effect in the angular distributions of photoelectrons

Findings show fundamental particles called muons behaving in a way that is not predicted by scientists' best theory, the Standard Model of particle physics

Harvard researchers become first to cool polyatomic molecule using light

Quantum teleportation is an important step in improving quantum computing

To date, no methods of optical imaging can observe atomic nuclei, because it is extremely challenging to image such tiny entities surrounded by electrons

Artificial intelligence techniques accurately calculate the energy required to make—or break—simple molecules

The breakthrough has revealed that a symmetry that exists within the core of the atom is not as fundamental as scientists have believed
