Chemical reaction: the magneto-optical trap used to study hypermetallic alkaline earth oxides A magneto-optical trap has been used by physicists in the US to study how ions and atoms interact to ...

The scientists could observe spatially resolved the molecule with the help of a self-build ion microscope. When single particles like atoms and ions bond, molecules emerge. Such bonds between to ...

Keeping cool: artist’s impression of how atoms (red) are held in place with laser beams and the ion (blue) with electric fields. (Courtesy: University of Amsterdam) A new technique that allows ...

Scientists at NIST have developed a radical new method of focusing a stream of ions into a point as small as one nanometer, a versatile ion source that is expected to have broad application in ...

The 2025 Nobel Prize for physics recognizes original investigations in the intersection of basic and applied sciences. The prize recipients tested profound quantum mechanical hypotheses through clear ...

(Nanowerk News) A team led by Prof. Dr. Tobias Schätz, Professor of Atomic and Quantum Physics at the Institute of Physics at the University of Freiburg, Dr. Pascal Weckesser, Fabian Thielemann and ...

The University of Maryland has created the largest quantum simulation using 53 trapped-ion qubits. It is the largest quantum simulation ever performed with high- efficiency single-shot measurements of ...

When single particles like atoms and ions bond, molecules emerge. Such bonds between to particles can arise if they have for example opposite electrical charges and hence attract each other. The ...
