The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. There are precision measurements, and then there’s the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory. In each of LIGO’s twin ...

"These single atoms are like the smallest slits you could possibly build." For over 100 years, quantum physics has taught us that light is both a wave and a particle. Now, researchers at the ...

URBANA, Ill. — Three atomic clocks, each no bigger than a grain of sand, suspended at different heights around a city. But these aren’t ordinary timepieces; they’re quantum devices that exist in ...

TOLEDO, Ohio — A University of Toledo building was evacuated late Thursday night after a chemical engineering experiment posed a threat of explosion. A university spokesperson confirmed Thursday at 10 ...
