Physicists stored data in quantum holograms made of twisted light
Particles of twisted light that have been entangled using quantum mechanics offer a new approach to dense and secure data storage.
Holograms that produce 3-D images and serve as…

If she hits just the right pitch, a singer can shatter a wine glass. The reason is resonance. While the glass may vibrate slightly in response to most acoustic tones, a pitch that resonates…
Quantum physicists make major nanoscopic advance
In a new breakthrough, researchers at the University of Copenhagen, in collaboration with Ruhr University Bochum, have solved a problem that has caused quantum researchers headaches for…
Physicists model cell migration to learn how cancer cells navigate tissue
During mesenchymal migration, a cancer cell moves like a gecko on a wall.
Before choosing this mode of movement, the cell sizes up the surface to which it may stick, explained physicist…
Physicists Rewrite a Quantum Rule That Clashes With Our Universe
“There are some configurations of the future that don’t correspond to anything in the past,” Cotler said. “There’s nothing in the past that would evolve into them.”Giddings has proposed a…
