The quantum world is already full of surprises, but a new discovery has added an entire wing to what scientists call the “quantum zoo.” Using a new kind of laser technique, researchers have uncovered ...

Excitonic pairing and fractional quantum Hall effect in quantum Hall bilayer. Credit: Naiyuan J. Zhang et al, Amid the many mysteries of quantum physics, subatomic particles don't always follow the ...

Physicists working at ultra-low temperatures have stumbled onto a quantum phase that should not exist according to the usual ...

A new framework for understanding the nonmonotonic temperature dependence and sign reversal of the chirality-related ...

In a quiet corner of low-temperature physics, researchers have stumbled on a phase of matter that seems to break one of the field’s unwritten rules: it works without well-defined particles. Instead of ...

Researchers observe over a dozen never-before-seen quantum states in a unique quantum material. There are a seemingly endless number of quantum states that describe quantum matter and the strange ...

A new framework for understanding the non-monotonic temperature dependence and sign reversal of the chirality-related ...

In the past year, two separate experiments in two different materials captured the same confounding scenario: the coexistence of superconductivity and magnetism. Scientists had assumed that these two ...

In a study, physicists now observed a class of quantum particles called fractional excitons, which behave in unexpected ways and could significantly expand scientists' understanding of the quantum ...
