Chemical Chameleon Tamed: Researchers Give Floppy Molecule a Structure Through Solvent Effects
March 14, 2013 — How you get the chameleon of the molecules to settle on a particular "look" has been discovered by chemists in Germany. The molecule CH5+ is normally not to be described by a single rigid structure, ... > full story -
Electrons Behaving Like a Particle and a Wave: Feynman's Double-Slit Experiment Brought to Life
March 13, 2013 — The precise methodology of Richard Feynman's famous double-slit thought-experiment -- a cornerstone of quantum mechanics that showed how electrons behave as both a particle and a wave -- has been ... > full story -
Mechanical Micro-Drum Used as Quantum Memory
March 13, 2013 — Researchers have demonstrated that information encoded as a specific point in a traveling microwave signal -- the vertical and horizontal positions of a wave pattern at a certain time -- can be ... > full story -
Quantum Magnets Moving Along: Scientists Observes Coherent Propagation of a Single Spin Impurity in a Chain of Ultracold Atoms
March 13, 2013 — Many discoveries in physics came as a big surprise -- for example the phenomenon, that some materials loose almost all their electrical resistance at low temperatures, or that others become ... > full story -
Quantum Refrigerator Offers Extreme Cooling and Convenience
March 8, 2013 — Researchers have demonstrated a solid-state refrigerator that uses quantum physics in micro- and nanostructures to cool a much larger object to extremely low temperatures. What's more, the prototype ... > full story -
The Future of Ion Traps: Technology Will Continue to Be Leader in Development of Quantum Computing Architectures
