Indian Scientists Unlock Atomic Interactions Paving the Way for Next-Generation Quantum Devices

New Delhi, 22 September 2025: In a significant breakthrough for Indian quantum research, scientists have demonstrated how atoms cease to behave as independent particles when pushed into extremely high-energy states. At these energy levels, the atoms interact so strongly that their response to light becomes broadened and distorted, marking the first global observation of interaction-driven […]
