We all know space is cold, but some places are so extreme they make even Antarctica look comfortable. Scientists have discovered pockets of the universe that reach temperatures close to the absolute ...

A team of researchers has developed a new quantum dilution refrigerator that could revolutionize quantum computing research. Able to create conditions close to absolute zero (more than -400 degrees ...

It's certainly been a cold week in Colorado, and the state was home to one of the coldest places in the universe. But people didn't feel it. Rather, it's in a quantum dilution refrigerator at the ...

Scientists have observed anyons -- quasiparticles that differ from the familiar fermions and bosons -- in a one-dimensional quantum system for the first time. The results may contribute to a better ...
