50 Years Later, a Quantum Mystery Has Finally Been Solved

The quantum physics community is buzzing with excitement after researchers at Rice University finally observed a phenomenon that had eluded scientists for over 70 years. This breakthrough, recently published in Science Advances is known as the superradiant phase transition (SRPT), represents a significant milestone in quantum mechanics and opens extraordinary possibilities for future technological applications.

In 1954, physicist Robert H. Dicke proposed an intriguing theory suggesting that under specific conditions, large groups of excited atoms could emit light in perfect synchronization rather than independently. This collective behavior, termed superradiance, was predicted to potentially create an entirely new phase of matter through a complete phase transition.

For over seven decades, this theoretical concept remained largely confined to equations and speculation. The primary obstacle was the infamous “no-go theorem,” which seemingly prohibited such transitions in conventional light-based systems. This theoretical barrier frustrated generations of quantum physicists attempting to observe this elusive phenomenon.

A framework for realizing a microscopic, highly precise and energy-efficient quantum clock

Over the past decades, physicists have been trying to develop increasingly sophisticated and precise clocks to reliably measure the duration of physical processes that unfold over very short periods of time, helping to validate various theoretical predictions. These include so-called quantum clocks, timekeeping systems that leverage the principles of quantum mechanics to measure time with extremely high precision.

New breakthrough enables precise activation of quantum features in diamond

A new study led by researchers at the Universities of Oxford, Cambridge and Manchester has achieved a major advance in quantum materials, developing a method to precisely engineer single quantum defects in diamond—an essential step toward scalable quantum technologies. The results have been published in the journal Nature Communications.

Using ChatGPT to write essays may be eroding critical thinking skills

A team of neurologists and AI specialists at MIT’s Media Lab has led a study looking into the brain impacts of large language model (LLM) use among people who engage with them for study or work. They report evidence that the use of LLMs may lead to an erosion of critical thinking skills. In their study, posted on the arXiv preprint server, the researchers asked groups of volunteers to write essays while connected to EEG monitors.

Over the past few years, the use of LLMs such as ChatGPT has become commonplace. Some use them for fun, while others use them to help with school or work responsibilities, and the team at MIT wondered what sort of impact LLM use might have on the brain.

To find out, they recruited 54 volunteers. The initial group was then split into three , all of whom were asked to write a 20-minute on the topic of philanthropy—one group was asked to use ChatGPT for help, the second was asked to use Google Search, and the third “Brain-only” group was given no tools or resources at all. The participants remained in these same groups for three writing sessions.

Study offers new insights into first-principles calculations of hadron structure

Researchers from the Institute of Modern Physics (IMP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), together with collaborators from the Instituto TecnolĂłgico de AeronĂĄutica in Brazil and Iowa State University, have theoretically explored the influence mechanism of quark-gluon interactions on the parton distribution functions (PDFs) within hadrons, providing new insights into first-principles calculations of hadron structure.

Their findings are published as a letter in Physical Review D.

Hadrons are essential building blocks of the universe. These composite particles, which are composed of quarks and , include protons, neutrons, , and others. Investigating the behavior of quarks and gluons within hadrons is crucial for unraveling the mysteries of the microscopic structure of matter.
