Pauli Exclusion Principle

Quantum tech isn't just about going smaller—it's about doing the impossible

Theoretical physicists predict the existence of exotic "paraparticles" that defy classification and could have quantum computing applications

Wolfgang Pauli is famous for the discovery of exclusion principle for which he won Nobel Prize in physics. Funny anecdotes of Wolfgang Pauli.

All it takes is a bit of (very complicated) math.

Electrons swarm in a soup of quantum entanglement in a new class of materials called strange metals

Magnets produce magnetic fields and attract metals like iron, nickel and cobalt. They're used in all sorts of applications but how are they made and how do they work?

The combination of a triple-helix chemical structure and a quantum mechanical effect create a strong substance with chemical bonds that resists breakdown by water.

Americans are about to face a choice between two incumbent presidents. The idea sounds oxymoronic: a political version of the Pauli Exclusion Principle in physics, whereby two particles cannot occupy the same space at once. Yet that is precisely the situation—barring an act of God or the Obamas—in which we will soon find ourselves.

Physicists have discovered a new quantum bit, or 'qubit,' in the form of vibrating pairs of atoms known as fermions. The new qubit appears to be extremely robust, able to maintain superposition between two vibrational states, even in the midst of environmental noise, for up to 10 seconds, offering a possible foundation for future quantum computers.

Quantum entanglement is a physical process through which pairs of particles become connected and remain so even when separated by vast distances. This fascinating phenomenon has been the focus of numerous research studies, due to its mysterious nature and promising real-world applications.

The pursuit of superconductivity at 400K has turned the scientific community and laypeople alike into a whirlpool of excitement, skepticism, and curiosity. Once deemed a distant dream, a series of…

My understanding is that when it comes to forming a white dwarf, it is the electron degeneracy pressure, due to the Pauli Exclusion Principle, preventing collapse in of the white dwarf. If the

A new proposal seeks to solve the paradox of quantum spin

The strong force binds quarks inside neutrons and protons, and holds atomic nuclei together.

MIT physicists have discovered a new quantum bit, or "qubit," in the form of vibrating pairs of atoms known as fermions. They found that when pairs of fermions are chilled and trapped in an optical lattice, the particles can exist simultaneously in two states—a weird quantum phenomenon known as superposition. In this case, the atoms held a superposition of two vibrational states, in which the pair wobbled against…

One side is all helium, and the other side is all hydrogen, baffling astronomers.
