In the everyday world, governed by classical physics, the concept of equilibrium reigns. If you put a drop of ink into water, it will eventually evenly mix. If you put a glass of ice water on the ...

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

Controlled defects in single-layer graphene pinpoint a critical 20 nm spacing where quantum interference traps electrons and ...

Energy diagram illustrating the dependence of eigenstate energies on quasiperiodic potential strength. Red dashed lines show the existence of two mobility edges in the system. In quantum systems, ...

Researchers in the UK say they have observed behaviour that is very close to an optical version of “Anderson localization” in a mat of gallium-phosphide nanowires – a material that is a strong ...

Statistical physics is a branch of physics that uses probability theory and statistics to solve physical problems that usually involve systems composed of a large number of units. Its main purpose is ...
