Gravity used to be the most down-to-earth of ideas, the thing that kept apples falling and planets in line. Now a growing ...

Physicists have found a way to study the inner workings of Josephson junctions without using electronics at all.

Spoiler: You are not living in a simulation. Advanced simulations have been the subject of fiction from The Matrix to the season two episode of The Twilight Zone (2019), “Downtime.” As our real-world ...

The research was published in the journal Science ("Observation of Shapiro steps in an ultracold atomic Josephson junction"). Two superconductors separated by a wafer-thin insulating layer – that's ...

Ultracold atoms have successfully mimicked a fundamental quantum effect normally found in electronic circuits.
