Albert Einstein, everyone’s favorite wild-haired genius with a mischievous grin, is more than just a pop culture icon whose legend lives on today. He’s arguably the most influential scientist of the ...

The poet Blake wrote that you can see a world in a grain of sand. But even better, you can see a universe in an atom!

Einstein was a great thinker who made plenty of mistakes—errors that sometimes led to more meaningful discoveries in physics, ...

For over 100 years, two theories have shaped our understanding of the universe: quantum mechanics and Einstein’s general relativity. One explains the tiny world of particles; the other describes ...

A hundred times more than relativity theory -- "An act of desperation" -- The impudent Swabian -- The gypsy life -- Two pillars of wisdom -- The perfect instruments of the creator -- More heat than ...

While quantum phenomena can be demonstrated using experiments such as the Double-Slit Experiment, certifying that a multi-qubit system is truly tapping into quantum mechanics is a challenge. It also ...

In a bold step toward solving one of science’s most puzzling problems, researchers have proposed a new way to bring gravity into the same mathematical language as the other forces of nature. While the ...

Physicist Mir Faizal, Adjunct Professor with UBC Okanagan’s Irving K. Barber Faculty of Science, was not out to shatter the dreams of science fiction enthusiasts when he began to study the limits of ...

Underneath the Danube -- Space travel -- The stuff called light. Light is a wave ; Light is particles -- Sheepdogs and Einstein's particles of light -- Einstein and his Nobel Prize -- A conflict -- ...

Albert Einstein, a revolutionary scientist and philosopher, believed imagination was crucial for groundbreaking discoveries ...

Breakthrough from Princeton team reveals exotic quantum state that coherently blends many-body correlation and quantum topology—two key concepts of modern quantum physics in a single material.

The study of quantum gases and Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) continues to redefine our understanding of matter at ultracold temperatures. When cooled to nanokelvin regimes, quantum gases exhibit ...
