Efforts to probe the physics of systems removed from equilibrium date back to Maxwell himself. But recent progress has renewed interest in the endeavour — a trend highlighted by this Insight, ...

Quantum Cluster Equilibrium (QCE) theory offers a rigorous framework for describing liquid states by considering the equilibrium distribution of molecular clusters. This approach, rooted in quantum ...

Imaginary numbers are a solution to a very real problem, according to a new study published in Scientific Reports. Two physicists at Argonne National Laboratory offered a way to mathematically ...
