If we can harness the potential of quantum physics, modern computers may come to seem like plodding calculators in comparison with the machines of the future, says Chris Carter ...

When a molecule absorbs light, it undergoes a whirlwind of quantum-mechanical transformations. Electrons jump between energy ...

Protons are the basic building blocks of matter. Together with neutrons, they form atomic nuclei. These minute, positively ...

Scientists have successfully relocated protons outside of an antimatter laboratory with the help of an autonomous, open Penning trap. This breakthrough marks a significant step toward transporting ...

New chapters have been added on the many-particle shell model, effective field theory, density functional theory, heavy-ion reactions and quark-gluon plasma, neutrinos, and electron scattering. This ...

The experiment continuously took data during the first physics campaign of the machine from fall 2009 until early 2013, using proton and lead-ion beams. In this paper we describe the running ...
