MIT researchers found that metals retain hidden atomic patterns once believed to vanish during manufacturing. These patterns ...

Atomic, molecular and optical physics lies at the intersection of quantum mechanics and electromagnetic theory, providing the fundamental framework for our understanding of matter and light.

Editor’s Note: Professor WERNER HEISENBERG, who was born in Duisburg in 1901, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1932 for his work on the quantum theory. A member of the faculty of the ...

A tomic clocks, which power GPS, online transactions, and data networks, just became more precise. MIT physicists have developed a technique that doubles the accuracy of optical atomic clocks by ...

Researchers from The University of New Mexico and Los Alamos National Laboratory have developed a novel computational ...

The use of atomic clocks could help bring cosmology and astrophysics "down to Earth" by allowing scientists to investigate the mysteries of dark energy and dark matter in the lab. When you purchase ...

A new AI model generates realistic synthetic microscope images of atoms, providing scientists with reliable training data to accelerate materials research and atomic scale analysis.
