This includes proposals such as the Atom Interferometry CERN Experiment (AICE), which would apply similar techniques over ...

Assistant Professor Haocun Yu is something of a scientific diplomat. In a recent Physical Review Letters publication, she and ...

A Michelson interferometer spectrometer carried aboard the Nimbus 3 satellite, launched 14 April 1969, measured the spectrum between 400 and 2000 wave numbers with a resolution of 5 wave numbers. High ...

Who’s who: The quantum Alice in Wonderland would like to understand whether the many “Twindeldum-Twindeldees” she sees are really identical or not, and uses the new interferometer for this purpose.

Dark energy—a mysterious force pushing the universe apart at an ever-increasing rate—was discovered 26 years ago, and ever since, scientists have been searching for a new and exotic particle causing ...

Quantum theory is strange. With it's particle-wave duality, and spooky action at a distance, it is a difficult theory to wrap your head around. But long before we were able to test some of its ...

A prototype quantum sensor developed by researchers at Imperial has demonstrated for the first time that a key principle ...
