Quantum mechanics has a concept called a "wave function." It's incredibly important because it holds all the measurable information about a particle (or group of particles) within it. In practice, the ...

SCAR/WAVE proteins are central regulators of cell motility that coordinate actin reorganization through activation of the Arp2/3 complex. Their activity is controlled by a large complex with four ...

The precise imaging of many-body systems, which are comprised of many interacting particles, can help to validate theoretical ...

It underpins the whole theory of quantum mechanics, but does it exist? For nearly a century physicists have argued about whether the wave function is a real part of the world or just a mathematical ...

Trapping ultracold atoms with laser light let researchers magnify and then image the wave functions of atoms that were ...

Trapping and controlling electrons in bilayer graphene quantum dots yields a promising platform for quantum information technologies. Researchers have now achieved the first direct visualization of ...
