Quantum spin liquids are exotic states of matter in which spins (i.e., the intrinsic angular momentum of electrons) do not ...

Physicists call this strange state a quantum spin liquid, and for decades it has been one of the most elusive phases of ...

A long-standing physics mystery has been solved with the discovery of emergent photon-like behavior inside a strange quantum ...

A new technique allows complex interactions in materials to be simulated using Monte Carlo simulations thousands of times ...

Physics simulations using classical mechanics is something that’s fairly easily done on regular consumer hardware, with ...

PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Superconductivity occurs when electrical current moves without resistance, a phenomenon that gave rise to particle accelerators, magnetic resonance imagining machines and trains ...

A crucial number that rules the universe goes big in a strange quantum material. The fine-structure constant is about 10 times its normal value in a type of material called quantum spin ice, ...

Spin device: in this diagram of the spin valve the nanowire runs between a source and drain (both shown in gold) and the locations of the two quantum dots on the nanowire are denoted by the dashed ...
