Molecular Rings Mystery Solved After 20 Years
April 16, 2013 Although the double benzene molecule tried to reveal its structure in experiments in 1993, chemists at the time were unable to find an explanation for the spectral peaks they saw. Now, 20 years ... > full story -
Photons Run out of Loopholes: Quantum World Really Is in Conflict With Our Everyday Experience
April 15, 2013 Physicists have carried out an experiment with photons in which they have closed an important loophole. The researchers have thus provided the most complete experimental proof that the quantum world ... > full storyMore: -
Bose-Einstein Condensates Evaluated for Quantum Computers
April 11, 2013 Physicists have examined how Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) might be used to provide communication among the nodes of a distributed quantum computer. The researchers determined the amount of time ... > full story -

Material Turns 'Schizophrenic' on Way to Superconductivity
April 5, 2013 Physicists on the hunt for the origins of high-temperature superconductivity have published new findings this week about a material that becomes "schizophrenic" -- simultaneously exhibiting the ... > full story -
Don't Call It Vaporware: Scientists Use Cloud of Atoms as Optical Memory Device
April 4, 2013 Talk about storing data in the cloud. Scientists have taken this to a whole new level by demonstrating that they can store visual images within quite an ethereal memory device -- a thin vapor of ... > full story -
Quantum Tricks Drive Magnetic Switching Into the Fast Lane
April 3, 2013 Researchers in the U.S. and Greece have found a new way to switch magnetism that is at least 1000 times faster than currently used in magnetic memory technologies. Magnetic switching is used to ... > full story -
Search for Dark Matter: Experiment Measures Antimatter Excess in Cosmic Ray Flux
April 3, 2013 The international team running the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) today announced the first results in its search for dark matter. They report the observation of an excess of positrons in the ... > full storyMore: -
