Highly charged heavy ions form a very suitable experimental field for investigating quantum electrodynamics (QED), the best-tested theory in physics describing all electrical and magnetic interactions ...

This video provides a simple explanation of symmetry and gauge theory, focusing on their foundational role in physics. It ...

Spin glasses are physical systems in which the small magnetic moments of particles (i.e., spins) interact with each other in a random way. These random interactions between spins make it impossible ...

Quantum electrodynamics in waveguide systems explores how individual quantum emitters interact with confined light modes guided along one-dimensional structures. By engineering the dispersive and ...

For the last 80 years, the theory of quantum electrodynamics (QED), which describes all electromagnetic interactions, has been a cornerstone of the standard model, withstanding the scrutiny of ...

Taking quantum circuits from a vague academic notion to the factory floor in just over 40 years might sound daunting — even impossible. But as Yale physicist Robert Schoelkopf explains, it all came ...

This video explores the three fundamental forces of the quantum world: electromagnetism, the weak force, and the strong force, and their roles in shaping atoms, matter, and the universe.

Yale’s quest to build the world’s first, fully useful quantum computer is also the story of a small-town kid’s obsession with short-wave radios, a Parisian’s fond boyhood memories of America, and a ...

Richard Feynman is remembered as one of the twentieth century's greatest physicists, a Nobel Prize winner whose work transformed quantum electrodynamics and whose wit made science accessible to ...
