In the everyday world that humans experience, objects behave in a predictable way, explained by classical physics. One of the important aspects of classical physics is that nothing, not even ...

Researchers at TU Wien have discovered an unexpected new state of matter in which topological properties emerge even though the usual particle picture of electrons breaks down. The findings show that ...

Physicists have built a quantum gas that behaves nothing like the substances we are used to, and that is exactly why it is causing such excitement. Instead of slowing down when particles collide, this ...

Classical physics theories suggest that when two or more electromagnetic waves interfere destructively (i.e., with their electric fields canceling each other out), they cannot interact with matter. In ...

Quantum entanglement, a bewildering phenomenon where particles become interconnected regardless of the distance separating them, challenges our fundamental understanding of reality. It has puzzled ...

Classical physics encompasses the body of theory developed over the past few centuries that describes the behaviour of macroscopic systems. Rooted in Newton’s laws of motion and gravitation, the ...
