Physicists at the University of Cambridge have experimentally created the first two-dimensional “Bose glass” — a strange state of matter in which particles become trapped rather than spreading through the system. The […]

Electrons are normally imagined as particles travelling through a wire. But under the right conditions they can behave collectively like a liquid — complete with microscopic whirlpools. ETH Zurich researchers have now […]
Oxford scientists have observed an extraordinary effect at the atomic scale: the movement of ions can retain a “memory” of what happened moments earlier. The discovery challenges a simple assumption about how […]
