Shapiro steps – a series of abrupt jumps in the voltage–current characteristic of a Josephson junction that is exposed to microwave radiation – have been observed for the first time in ultracold gases ...

Physicists have built a quantum gas that behaves nothing like the substances we are used to, and that is exactly why it is ...

The questions in this quiz are suitable for GCSE physics students studying particle motion, gas pressure and temperature, gas pressure and volume and changing gas pressure - Higher. If you struggled ...

Researchers at TU Wien have developed a one-dimensional “quantum wire” using a gas of ultracold atoms. In this system, both ...

Cooling atoms to ultra-low temperatures reveals the striking differences between fermions and bosons at the quantum level. When the 2001 Nobel Prize for Physics was awarded to Eric Cornell and Carl ...

Experiments on ultracold Fermi gases at microkelvin temperatures are revolutionizing many areas of physics. Their exceptional simplicity allows tests of many-body theory in areas long thought to be ...

At first glance, physics and food science appear to belong to different worlds. Physics is often seen as abstract, mathematical and distant from daily life, while food science feels immediate, ...
