With properties of a superfluid but with a crystalline structure, supersolids have previously only been observed in ultracold ...

Light brought 'to a halt' in quantum breakthrough ... Do you have a question about physics? Let us know via [email protected].

And it ultimately led to Koshiba being awarded the 2002 Nobel Prize in Physics for experiments that ... products such as X-ray tubes and a range of light detectors and lasers are found inside ...

Our group studies the physics of imaging and new methods of imaging physics. Examples include optical hydrodynamics, in which the propagation of light is described in terms of fluid flow, statistical ...

Led by Professor Riccardo Sapienza from the Department of Physics, this research team explored how light interacts with a ...

Interferometers, devices that can modulate aspects of light, play the important role of modulating and switching light ...

An odd solid that can flow like a fluid has been created from light for the first time. Studying it will help researchers better understand exotic quantum states of matter. “We actually made lig ...

The formula really works. Usually pure mathematics supports physics, supplying the mathematical tools with which physical systems are analysed, but this is a case of the reverse: quantum physics is ...
