And, almost as a bi-product of the model, we were able to produce this image of a photon, something that hasn’t been seen before in physics,” first author Dr Benjamin Yuen said in a statement.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Researchers in Purdue University’s College of Engineering have developed patent-pending single-photon 3D nanoprinting technology. It produces a higher throughput of complex, ...

Scientists at CERN’s ATLAS experiment have uncovered compelling evidence of Higgs bosons decaying into muons, an incredibly ...

A photonics research group co-led by Gregor Weihs of the University of Innsbruck has developed a new technique for generating multi-photon states from quantum dots that overcomes the limitations ...

Our model predicts a quantum resource, giant susceptibility, when the system of qubits is engineered to simulate a first-order quantum phase transition (QPT). We show that the absorption of a single ...

In particular, the photon model accounted for the frequency dependence of light's energy, and explained the ability of matter and radiation to be in thermal equilibrium.

They are barely thicker than a human hair—yet they could significantly improve the effectiveness of inhaled medications: ...

Alexandru Lupsasca and Michael Johnson won the New Horizons award for their work on photon spheres — weird rings of light around black holes that may reveal a theory of quantum gravity.
