From subatomic particles to human beings, interaction is what shapes reality

Physicists describe how they manipulated atoms in an unusual state of matter wherein they act much more like a single, wave-like structure than a group of individual particles.

Over the years, quantum technology has been researched in advanced countries worldwide, including Thailand which is now speeding up its research to enable wider impacts for future generations.

A computer simulation of a supermassive black hole surprised astrophysicists by producing a rare type of X-shaped radio galaxy.

Scientists know very little about the matter that makes up the galaxies in the Universe. About 20% of the matter in galaxies is visible or baryonic: subatomic particles like protons, neutrons and electrons. The other 80%, referred to as “dark matter”, remains mysterious and unseen.

The latest Webb observations do reveal some strange and unexpected things about the universe

Getting atoms to do what you want isn’t easy – but it’s at the heart of a lot of groundbreaking research in physics.
