Recent research reveals that quantum mechanics can supersede the second law of thermodynamics at the atomic scale, ...

Two physicists at the University of Stuttgart have proven that the Carnot principle, a central law of thermodynamics, does ...

Just over 200 years after French engineer and physicist Sadi Carnot formulated the second law of thermodynamics, an international team of researchers has unveiled an analogous law for the quantum ...

Time crystals exhibit perpetual motion-like behavior when separated from external energy input, but scientists found a way to ...

People are calling it a breakthrough, a new phase of matter—Google's invention of Time Crystals has the science and tech scenes in a daze. No, we're not talking about one of six physics-defying stones ...

Researchers have made a breakthrough in applying the first law of thermodynamics to complex systems. The law is a bedrock of physics, but has long failed to describe systems that are out of ...

Benjamin Franklin famously said, “In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes,” but anyone who’s ever taken an introductory Physics class knows that there’s something more ...

When two microscopic systems are entangled, their properties are linked to each other irrespective of the physical distance between the two. Manipulating this uniquely quantum phenomenon is what ...
