In many quantum materials—materials with unusual electrical and magnetic properties driven by quantum mechanical effects—electrons can organize themselves into Landau levels. Landau levels are ...

In the 100th-anniversary year of quantum mechanics, which describes the universe at its smallest, most fundamental scales, the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics has gone to three pioneers in bringing its ...

RICHARD FEYNMAN, one of the 20th century’s greatest physicists, once quipped, “I think I can safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics.” Appropriately, then, a certain sense of bemusement ...

The Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to three scientists on Tuesday for discovering that a bizarre barrier-defying phenomenon in the quantum realm could be observed on an electrical circuit in our ...
