  • Physicists say they’ve manipulated ‘pure nothingness’ and observed the fallout

    Physicists say they’ve manipulated ‘pure nothingness’ and observed the fallout

    An important step towards a completely new experimental access to quantum physics has been made at University of Konstanz. The team of scientists headed by Professor Alfred Leitenstorfer has now shown how to manipulate the electric vacuum field and thus generate deviations from the ground state of empty space which can only be understood in…
