Selected Science Writing

Rethinking reality: Is the entire universe a single quantum object?
In the face of new evidence, physicists are starting to view the cosmos not as made up of disparate layers, but as a quantum whole linked by entanglement.

Neue Physik mit Neutrinos
Sie sind die Exoten im Teilchenzoo: fast lichtschnell, mit verschwindend geringer Masse und kaum mit Materie wechselwirkend. Zwar lassen sich Neutrinos nur mit gewaltigem Aufwand aufspüren, doch dafür weist ihre Erforschung einen Weg, der über das Standardmodell der Elementarteilchen hinausführt.
