Highly charged heavy ions form a very suitable experimental field for investigating quantum electrodynamics (QED), the best-tested theory in physics describing all electrical and magnetic interactions ...

Spin glasses are physical systems in which the small magnetic moments of particles (i.e., spins) interact with each other in a random way. These random interactions between spins make it impossible ...

Quantum electrodynamics in waveguide systems explores how individual quantum emitters interact with confined light modes guided along one-dimensional structures. By engineering the dispersive and ...

For the last 80 years, the theory of quantum electrodynamics (QED), which describes all electromagnetic interactions, has been a cornerstone of the standard model, withstanding the scrutiny of ...

Taking quantum circuits from a vague academic notion to the factory floor in just over 40 years might sound daunting — even impossible. But as Yale physicist Robert Schoelkopf explains, it all came ...

Richard Feynman is remembered as one of the twentieth century's greatest physicists, a Nobel Prize winner whose work ...

Entanglement sits at the heart of quantum technology, but it is rarely easy to make. The most powerful states often demand delicate hardware, custom-built controls, and a long list of moving parts.

Yale’s quest to build the world’s first, fully useful quantum computer is also the story of a small-town kid’s obsession with short-wave radios, a Parisian’s fond boyhood memories of America, and a ...

The Trick Feynman Used That Textbooks Don't Mention Richard Feynman could explain quantum electrodynamics to a first-year student without losing the physics. That wasn't charm. It was a deliberate ...
