  Boston MA (SPX) May 06, 2025 MIT physicists have captured the first images of individual atoms freely interacting in space. The pictures reveal correlations among the "free-range" particles that until now were predicted but never directly observed. Their findings, appearing in the journal Physical Review Letters, will help scientists visualize never-before-seen quantum phenomena in real space. The images were taken using a technique developed by the team that first allows a cloud of atoms to move and interact freely. The rese ... read more |
