Only in the eighties did the field of quantum optics begin to deserve its name fully. Previously, the quantum aspects were limited to the role of spontaneous emission in the laser and in other radiative phenomena. In the eighties fundamental concepts of quantum physics - for example, wave-...
The Extraordinary Scientist Who Changed Our Understanding of Physics There aren't very many scientists who achieved rock star status. Stephen Hawking was definitely one of them. Hawking was a theoretical physicist whose early work on black holes (1) D how scientists think about t...
Then came Maxwell’s equations which told us all about light and colors and that became within the realm of science. Then we got to quantum mechanics, which told us why the apple is softer than the hazelnut and all the other properties of matter, and science has gradually conquered more an...
project, with many technical obstacles still standing in the way. But the unexpected outcomes that the technology will inevitably bring about on the way will make for an invaluable scientific journey, complete with a plethora of outlandish quantum applications that, for now, ...
Armed with seemingly scientific “facts” from quantum physics, will Warren defend his new worldview by stating, “That’s not flip-flopping. Sometimes that’s growing in wisdom”? Is this where Warren, Sweet, and other Christian leaders will try to take the church? Are they about to take...
Whether you’re laughing right now—or staring at your screen in confusion—hinges on how much you know about one of the foundational ideas in quantum physics: Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle. In its most basic and commonly known form, the uncertainty principle says that the more precisely...
(at about 1*10-4meters) in a vacuum more perfect than any ever achieved on Earth, mitigating the forces acting on our system, for three seconds. If gravity does have a quantum component, then each time the experiment happens the fall should be different because the quantum effects of the...
The Large Hadron Collider is the world's largest particle accelerator. It's located at the European particle physics laboratory CERN, near Geneva, Switzerland.

“Any discipline that requires the use of molecules and atoms can be helped by the quantum revolution, including cancer research, aging. Why do we die? Think about it for a moment: There are zero laws of physics that say that we have to die,” Kaku says. ...
