A new kind of quantum computer uses a high-resolution microscope to control the electron spins of titanium atoms. Plus, the Universe-mapping Euclid telescope fixes the wobble that threatened its ...

Like their conventional counterparts, quantum computers can also break down. They can sometimes lose the atoms they ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Matter gets weird at the quantum scale, and among the oddities is the Efimov effect, a state in which the attractive forces between three or more atoms bind them together, even ...

All the elements in the Periodic Table are made from different atoms, and the structure of these atoms results in a gamut of phenomena from radioactive decay to nuclear power. When you purchase ...

Matter is made up of very small parts called atoms. Atoms can combine in different numbers and in different ways to make different molecules. Atoms and molecules make up all of the different ...
