MIT physicists have recreated the most iconic experiment in quantum physics — this time with individual atoms acting as the ...

A Copenhagen team has unlocked a clever “backdoor” into studying rare quantum states once thought beyond reach. Scientists at ...

Part of our International Year of Quantum Science and Technology coverage Philip Ball peers into the quantum past, and uncovers a little-known paper published by Niels Bohr, Hendrik Kramers and John ...

Meanwhile, Bohr has started a postdoctoral research position at JILA, a joint institute between the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the University of Colorado, Boulder.

Bohr is also remembered for his intense conversations with some of the founders of quantum mechanics. These include Erwin Schrödinger, whom Bohr browbeat into a (temporary) retraction of his ideas; ...

💻 Quantum Computing: The Einstein-Bohr - DebatesTo understand the power and the challenges of the quantum computer, we have to spend a little more time watching the intense debates between ...

Niels Bohr won a Nobel Prize for the idea that an atom is a small, positively charged nucleus surrounded by orbiting electrons. He also contributed to quantum theory.

The Bohr model seemed to work pretty well for atoms with only one electron. But apart from hydrogen, all other atoms in the periodic table have more, some many more, electrons orbiting their nuclei.

Bohr's discovery of the quantum nature of the atom, published when he was a young man of 28, was an important pioneering contribution to the earliest days of quantum physics ...

Niels Bohr was born and educated in Copenhagen, Denmark. He lived, worked, and died there, too. But his mark on science and history was worldwide. His professional work and personal convictions ...
