Physicists have taken a major step toward using AI not just to analyze data, but to uncover entirely new laws of nature. By ...

Researchers have, for the first time, described the properties of one-dimensional anyons and outlined how these particles can be observed using existing experimental setups.

Collaboration that made precise measurement of the g-2 value honored with $3 million from the Breakthrough Prize in ...

A neglected force produced by neutrinos and other particles helps atomic physics measurements align with predictions of the ...

A pair of identical particles swapping places sounds like a small move. In quantum physics, it is a defining one. In everyday three-dimensional space, that swap only comes in two flavors. Either the ...
