Using a newly developed technique, scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics (MPIK) in Heidelberg have measured the very small difference in the magnetic properties of two isotopes of ...

The optical properties of metallic nanoparticles with nanometre dimensions exhibit features that cannot be described by classical electrodynamics. In this quantum size regime, the near-field ...

Demystify coaxial cable inductance with this clear and practical electrodynamics tutorial! In this video, we break down the physics behind inductance in coaxial cables, showing how geometry, current ...

Quantum electrodynamics, a school of quantum mechanics, is the best-tested theory in physics. It describes all electrical and magnetic interactions of light and matter. In the macroscopic world, ...

Simulation of quantum chemistry has become one of the killer applications of quantum computers. In recent years, Google, IBM, and other IT companies have been engineering better and better ...

The special theory of relativity and quantum electrodynamics are two important fundamentals of modern physics. They have been experimentally verified many times already and both have passed all the ...

The start of World War II threw quantum theory research into disarray. Many of the European physicists left Europe all together, and research moved across the ocean to the shores of the United States.

Adapting a detector developed for space X-ray observation, researchers have successfully verify strong-field quantum electrodynamics with exotic atoms. An international collaboration of researchers, ...
