Moiré superlattices are materials consisting of two layers stacked on top of each other with either a small rotational misalignment or a lattice mismatch between them. The Kondo lattice model, on the ...

Two physicists just snagged $3 million for helping develop a super-precise clock that could allow scientists to study and explore the universe like never before. Hidetoshi Yatori and Jun Ye won the ...

Bloch oscillations are periodic oscillations of quantum particles in a repeating energy "landscape" (e.g., a crystal lattice) ...

One of the most challenging goals for researchers in the fields of nuclear and particle physics is to better understand the interactions between quarks and gluons — the building blocks of protons and ...

An optical atomic clock that, if left running for the entire life of the universe, would neither gain nor lose more than 100 ms has been created by physicists in the US and Italy. The device has a ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I write about physics, science, academia, and pop culture. To start with, our current definition of time is based on cesium atomic ...
