For almost a century, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle has stood as one of the defining ideas of quantum physics: a ...

Scientists reveal unprecedented ability to "side-step" the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle by simultaneously measuring ...

By using something called a quantum grid, scientists have found a clever way to simultaneously measure momentum and position ...

Physicists in Australia and Britain have reshaped quantum uncertainty to sidestep the restriction imposed by the famous ...

The measurement problem in quantum mechanics looks at how an experimental outcome changes, simply by observing it.

Scientific progress has been inseparable from better measurements. Before 1927, only human ingenuity seemed to limit how precisely we could measure things. Then Werner Heisenberg discovered that ...

Quantum measurement and uncertainty relations lie at the heart of quantum mechanics, delineating fundamental limits on the precision with which non-commuting observables can be simultaneously ...

Batavia, Ill., Aug. 10, 2023 – Physicists now have a brand-new measurement of a property of the muon called the anomalous magnetic moment that improves the precision of their previous result by a ...

The Muon g-2 collaboration announced their much-anticipated updated measurement today. The new result aligns with the collaboration’s first result, announced in 2021 — and it’s twice as precise. In ...

Incorporated into every aspect of everyday life, the neutron is a fundamental particle of nature. Now, a research collaboration led by Los Alamos National Laboratory has improved the precision of free ...

Scientists working on Fermilab's Muon g-2 experiment released the world's most precise measurement yet of the magnetic moment of the muon, bringing particle physics closer to the ultimate showdown ...
