By influencing the nucleus of a titanium atom, they have created new opportunities for storing quantum information.

Valence electrons are the outermost electrons in an atom, and they play a key role in how atoms bond ... which the researcher ...

Researchers from Delft University of Technology in The Netherlands have been able to initiate a controlled movement in the ...

For instance, there is a weak connection between the nucleus and the orbiting electrons of an atom called the hyperfine ...

Questing for a truly constant “tick,” scientists have zoomed in on the atomic world, where the minuscule scales and ...

Researchers from the University of Tokyo have made an exciting discovery in antimatter research by cooling and slowing down ...

Researchers from Delft University of Technology in The Netherlands have been able to initiate a controlled movement in the very heart of an atom. They caused the atomic nucleus to interact with one of ...

Researchers, including those from the University of Tokyo, used precisely calibrated lasers to cool and slow down samples of positronium in a study that was published in Nature.

By repeating this process very quickly, within one ten-millionth of a second, scientists cooled parts of positronium gas to just 1 degree above absolute zero (-273°C), the coldest possible temperature ...

Most atoms are made from positively charged protons, neutral neutrons and negatively charged electrons. Positronium is an exotic atom composed of a single negative electron and a positively charged ...
