Scientists have long sought to unravel the mysteries of strange metals -- materials that defy conventional rules of electricity and magnetism. Now, a team of physicists has made a breakthrough in this ...

An atom is hit by a laser pulse. One electron is ripped out of the atom, another electron is shifted into a state with higher energy. Quantum theory describes events that take place on extremely short ...

Once described by Einstein as “spooky action at a distance,” quantum entanglement may now seem less intimidating in light of new research findings. Osaka Metropolitan University physicists have ...

Physicists used quantum tools to reveal that electrons in strange metals become highly entangled at a tipping point, offering insights for future superconductors. Unlike conventional metals such as ...
