Physicists have found a way to study the inner workings of Josephson junctions without using electronics at all.

For the first time, scientists have observed the iconic Shapiro steps, a staircase-like quantum effect, in ultracold atoms.

Daunted by the concept of 10,000 steps? Not to worry, a new study finds that 7,000 might be enough for a host of important health benefits. From cancer to heart disease, the risk of a host of chronic ...

Using ultracold atoms and laser light, researchers recreated the behavior of a Josephson junction—an essential component of ...

Ultracold atoms have successfully mimicked a fundamental quantum effect normally found in electronic circuits.

Most people treat 10,000 steps a day as common practice for optimum health benefits—but a new study is challenging that. Research analyzing data from over 160,000 adults has provided comprehensive ...

You’ve probably heard this one a few times before: Research suggests that exercise is linked to a longer life. What’s more surprising is that a tiny amount of activity could have a noticeable effect, ...

Instead of electrons in a solid, the researchers used Bose–Einstein condensates (BECs), ultracold gases in which atoms behave ...

The steps you take each day could lead you to a reduction in depression symptoms, according to a new study. A study published Monday in the journal JAMA Network Open found that a higher daily step ...

Researchers say that 10,000 steps may not be needed for “better health.” A recent study found that 7,000 steps a day may be enough to boost wellbeing. Experts explain the findings and how walking may ...
