Duke Quantum Center researchers use a neutral-atom platform to simulate unusual localization effects that could underpin robust quantum information storage.

In the everyday world, governed by classical physics, the concept of equilibrium reigns. If you put a drop of ink into water, ...

A new study has uncovered the universal dynamics far from equilibrium in randomly interacting spin models, thereby complementing the well-established universality in low-energy equilibrium physics.

Efforts to probe the physics of systems removed from equilibrium date back to Maxwell himself. But recent progress has renewed interest in the endeavour — a trend highlighted by this Insight, ...

Three different papers by three different groups on the same theme back-to-back in Nature? That is unusual. Yes, which is why they caught my eye. The papers all look rather interesting: they are about ...

Discover the fundamentals of mechanics with an in-depth look at the physics of forces on a frictionless inclined ramp at equilibrium. This video breaks down how normal force, gravitational components, ...

Imaginary numbers are a solution to a very real problem, according to a new study published in Scientific Reports. Two physicists at Argonne National Laboratory offered a way to mathematically ...

Unlock the secrets of torque and rotational equilibrium in this clear and engaging physics explanation. Using the example of a hanging sign, we break down how forces, distances, and angles work ...
