In this video, we explore the origins of the first atom, tracing back to the big bang, where immense energy condensed to form atoms. Key concepts include: - The uncertainty surrounding events before ...

Researchers have developed a means to realize cold-atom integrated nanophotonic circuits. Researchers at Purdue University have trapped alkali atoms (cesium) on an integrated photonic circuit, which ...

Ultracold atoms sit at the heart of the quantum-technology revolution. India has built a strong and steadily growing presence ...

Optical lattice clocks are emerging timekeeping devices based on tens of thousands of ultracold atoms trapped in an optical lattice (i.e., a grid of laser light). By oscillating between two distinct ...
