A superradiant clock phase emerges when Rydberg atoms meet quantum light, simulations suggest

Rydberg atoms are atoms with one or more outer electrons excited to very high energy levels, which interact very strongly with each other. These atoms are widely used to run quantum simulations and ...

Fading atoms in and out lets scientists simulate material flaws

Researchers developed a method that gradually adds and removes atoms in simulations, enabling realistic modeling of crystal defects that affect material strength.
