History affects superfluid’s flow, study shows
The speed to stop the stirring motion can be slower than what was need to set the fluid spinning in the first place, which shows that what happens to the current state of the superatom depends on what it has already experienced.

Tom’s Top 10 interpretations of quantum mechanics
Quantum mechanics has given birth to dozens of interpretations, which themselves need interpretations.

Single-pole magnet emerges in frozen concoction
An experiment has simulated the long-sought magnetic particle.

Atomic clock sets world records for precision, stability
The strontium atomic clock is about 50 percent more precise than the previous record holder made of a single charged aluminum atom and rivals the ytterbium atomic clock for the title of most stable.

Gell-Mann, Hartle spin a quantum narrative about reality
The “consistent histories” approach to quantum physics removes any role for people in creating “quasiclassical” reality.

‘QBists’ tackle quantum problems by adding a subjective aspect to science
Advocates of a program called “Quantum Bayesianism” take a subjective approach to resolving the paradoxes of quantum physics.

Electrons’ roundness frustrates researchers
Experiment finds no signs of asymmetry, which would point to undiscovered particles.

Quantum information storage that lasts and lasts
Physicists have stored a snippet of quantum information at room temperature for more than 1,000 times the previous record.

Single atoms hold on to information
Minutes-long data storage by individual atoms beats previous record of tiny fraction of a second.

Electron makes ultracold atoms move as one
Harnessing the strong particle-gas interaction is early step toward quantum optics applications.

Single electron caught in action
Researchers have found a way to isolate the behavior of one particle.
