Quantum Phenomenon and Infinite Possibilities
I love the wondrous, magical world of quanta... having been a secondary science teacher with a love of quantum mechanics for about 25 years, I can honestly say that the quantum world explains the magic I see around me every single day...
I just want to share the magic with you... :) 
In quantum physics physical processes in condensed matter and other many-body systems can often be described with quasiparticles. 
[HTML1]Did you see the eclipse yesterday? In case of poor geographic location or general Sunday laziness, here’s a time-lapse video showin... 
Once again quantum physics gives us philosophical implications: physicists have shown how a small amount of randomness can be amplified without limit. 
This spectacular image of the large spiral galaxy NGC 1232 is based on three exposures in ultra-violet, blue and red light, respectively. The colours of the different regions are well visible : the central areas contain older stars of reddish... 
Cool stuff | Today is Earth Day, and you'll probably see a lot of blog posts telling you how to save our planet, how we're doomed, how to lower your carbon footprint, how th... 
Crime & Punishment | acceleration | I think this picture says it all, officer. Clear as day!To all those police officers out there on traffic duty: Be real careful about ticketing physicists. 
Science | Several different things (all pleasant and work-related, no disasters) have been keeping me from being a good blogger as of late. Quantum communications schemes generally take advantage of the fact that, according to quantum theory, it's impossible to measure the condition or "state" of a quantum particle without disturbing the particle. 
Quantum theory describes the world of atoms very precisely. Still, it defies our macroscopic conception of the everyday world due to its many anti-intuitive predictions. 
By Matthew Francis, Ars TechnicaOne of the deepest mysteries in quantum physics is the wave-particle duality: every quantum object has prope... New research shows that it is possible to perfectly recover the original from the imperfect quantum copies. Scientists also propose a way that his could be done in practice. 
Einstein's theory of gravity and quantum physics are expected to merge at the Planck-scale of extremely high energies and on very short distances. Now scientists have proposed a new quantum experiment using Planck-mass mirrors. |
Science | Here's a fun thing that has been zipping around the internets this week: a collection of back of the envelope problems put together by Edward Purcell. 
Quantum physics and plant biology seem like two branches of science that could not be more different, but surprisingly they may in fact be intimately tied. Scientists have discovered an unusual quantum effect in the earliest stages of photosynthesis. 
Quantum computers may someday revolutionize the information world. But in order for quantum computers at distant locations to communicate with one another, they have to be linked together in a network. 
The relativistic Hall effect describing objects rotating at speeds comparable with the speed of light has now been reported. 
Radical new research is attempting to characterize the properties of a fifth force that disrupts the predictions general relativity makes outside our own galaxy, on cosmic-length scales. 
Science | A flowchart I put together for The Particle at the End of the Universe. 
A new type of quantum bit called a "phase-slip qubit" has enabled the world's first-ever experimental demonstration of coherent quantum phase slip (CQPS). 
In 1938 one of the world's greatet scientists withdrew all his money and disappeared during a boat trip from Palermo to Naples. Whether he killed himself, was murdered or lived on under a different identity is still not known. 
Feynman Diagrams help physicists understand what happens when particles collide. 
What's In a Number: Unravelling a Multiversal Paradoxio9According to quantum theory, virtual particles should be popping into and out of existence all the time—and are, as experiments have repeatedly shown over the past six decades. 
Researchers have announced breakthroughs in the development of tunneling field effect transistors, a semiconductor technology that takes advantage of the quirky behavior of electrons at the quantum level. 
Researchers have met the grand challenge of producing magnetic fields in excess of 100 tesla while conducting six different experiments. 
The first observation of a cosmic effect theory developed 40 years ago could provide astronomers with a more precise tool for understanding the forces behind the universe's formation and growth, including the enigmatic phenomena of dark energy and... |
