Researchers at UBC have found a way to mimic the elusive Schwinger effect using superfluid helium, where vortex pairs appear ...

In 1951, physicist Julian Schwinger theorized that by applying a uniform electrical field to a vacuum, electron-positron ...

There is a connection between physics and flamingos. It's all about the unusual way they feed. They stomp their large feet, they dip their heads upside down, eyes first into the water. They also open ...

Researchers have long sought to control quantum states in materials for use in a next generation of high-speed computing—so-called quantum computing that scientists predict could one day lead to ...
