Sometimes, even the simplest things can set off a quantum phenomenon.

Very simplified toy models help scientists get started, but the real world is far more complex.

Once considered an oddity of quantum physics, time crystals could be a good building block for accurate clocks and sensors, ...

According to the team, this discovery not only advances understanding of time crystals but could also help understand natural ...

“Our system is remarkable because it’s incredibly simple,” said paper author and physicist David Grier of New York University ...

Physicists at NYU have discovered a new type of time crystal—an exotic state of matter whose particles rhythmically “tick” while levitating on sound waves.

When performing calculations in a quantum computer qubits are required. Qubits are the units that enable the computer to ...

Time crystals, a collection of particles that "tick"—or move back and forth in repeating cycles—were first theorized and then ...

Quantum timekeeping has reached a new threshold, with trapped-ion clocks now accurate to the 19th decimal place and a ...

The S&P 500 recently completed three years of excellence. The famous benchmark scored double-digit gains in each of those years as the bull market marched on, reaching record high after record high.

At the smallest scales of matter, nature behaves in ways that feel almost counterintuitive. Individual particles follow simple rules, but when they interact together, entirely new behaviors can ...
