Unified time and frequency picture of ultrafast atomic excitation in strong fields

The insight that light sometimes needs to be treated as an electromagnetic wave and sometimes as a stream of energy quanta called photons is as old as quantum physics. In the case of interaction of strong laser fields with ...

The case for co-decaying dark matter

(Âé¶¹ÒùÔº)—There isn't as much dark matter around today as there used to be. According to one of the most popular models of dark matter, the universe contained much more dark matter early on when the temperature was hotter. ...
