167 years ago today, Max Planck was born in Kiel, Germany. As the father of quantum theory, he changed everything about the understanding of the atomic and the subatomic worlds. He collected the ...

Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex ... Their newly devised theory, outlined in a paper published in Physical Review Letters, is an extension of conventional ...

Quantum physics reshapes our view of time, not as a steady flow, but as unfolding possibilities shaped by probability—and ...

Light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, challenging traditional wave-particle thinking.

The first big clue came from Max Planck, a German physicist who’s now known as the father of quantum theory. Around 1900, he was studying how hot objects give off light—why, for example ...

"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of ...

Werner Heisenberg submitted a paper to Zeitschrift für Physik entitled ‘On quantum-theoretical reinterpretation of kinematic and mechanical relationships’, thus giving birth to quantum mechanics. In ...

Additionally, this phase offers the opportunity to build valuable networks within the Max Planck Institutes and beyond. The goal of the postdoc phase is also to empower you to assume leadership ...
