Cold atoms could also potentially measure much lower vacuum pressures than ion gauges can. The current lowest pressure they’ve reliably measured is around 10 -9 Pa, and NIST scientists are working on ...

Ok, as I understand it we have no way to determine the speed which we are moving at in an absolute sense.<BR><BR>We can say "We are moving 20 miles per hour in the car relative to the road" or "The ...

By using something called a quantum grid, scientists have found a clever way to simultaneously measure momentum and position ...

Most of us intuitively feel that reality ought to exist just fine on its own when we aren’t looking. If a tree falls in a forest when no one is around to hear the crash, the air still vibrates with ...

Scientists reveal unprecedented ability to "side-step" the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle by simultaneously measuring ...

For almost a century, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle has stood as one of the defining ideas of quantum physics: a ...

WashU physicists build quantum sensors in boron nitride sheets to study magnetism and stress under extreme pressure.

The flow of time isn’t as consistent as we might think – gravity slows it down, so clocks on the surface of Earth tick slower than those in space. Now researchers have measured time passing at ...

Scientists have engineered a new quantum sensing method, reshaping Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle. Their breakthrough ...
