Mohammad Hafezi, a Joint Quantum Institute Fellow, and his colleagues investigated how changing the ratio of fermionic to ...

Quantum particles have a social life, of a sort. They interact and form relationships with each other, and one of the most ...

Nature categorizes particles into two fundamental types: fermions and bosons. While matter-building particles such as quarks and electrons belong to the fermion family, bosons typically serve as force ...

Researchers have designed a new type of quantum computer that uses fermionic atoms to simulate complex physical systems. The processor uses programmable neutral atom arrays and is capable of ...

Are quantum particles polygamous? New experiments suggest some of them abandon long-standing partnerships when ...

A stable "exceptional fermionic superfluid," a new quantum phase that intrinsically hosts singularities known as exceptional ...

Scientists have observed a unique particle that moves easily one way, yet resists at 90 degrees. These semi-Dirac fermions were observed using their energy signature in a topological metal. Particles ...

The Fermi bubbles may have started life as jets of high-energy charged particles MINNEAPOLIS — Bubbles of radiation billowing from the galactic center may have started as a stream of electrons and ...

A new measurement by CERN’s ATLAS Collaboration has strengthened evidence that the masses of fundamental particles originate through their interaction with the Higgs field. Building on earlier results ...

The grand explanation physicists use to describe how the universe works may have some major new flaws to patch after a fundamental particle was found to have more mass than scientists thought. “It’s ...

The matter family has added a new member. Most everyone knows the four most common forms of matter solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. A fifth, the Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) was first observed in ...
