Physicists have produced experimental evidence that anyons, exotic quasiparticles long thought to exist only in ...

A pair of identical particles swapping places sounds like a small move. In quantum physics, it is a defining one.

In our three-dimensional space, elementary particles neatly filter into either bosons or fermions. But in lower dimensions, ...

The collaboration of TU Wien with research groups in China has resulted in a crucial building block for a new kind of quantum ...

Researchers attempting to solve the problem of dark matter have proposed a particle that can travel to an unseen fifth dimension. The work is entirely hypothetical, as it attempts to explain a type of ...

String theory found its origins in an attempt to understand the nascent experiments revealing the strong nuclear force. Eventually another theory, one based on particles called quarks and force ...

Sept. 7 - “The Quantum Physics of Climate Change,” with Brad Marston, Brown University An unlikely partnership between a theoretical physicist and a horror filmmaker has produced a surprising result: ...
