... only of theoretical interest, physicists discovered that this attractive force, caused by quantum fluctuations of the energy associated with Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, becomes significant ...

... order themselves in relation to each other. These frustration effects enhance magnetic quantum fluctuations, which may be responsible for the high-temperature superconductivity. "Precisely how this ...

... structure of space time will start to exhibit quantum fluctuations," Hsu said. "So there would be fuzziness ... getting kind of close to the scale where quantum gravity might exhibit this kind of fuzziness ...

... field to perturb the alignment of electrons within the material. "We introduced very high quantum fluctuations in the material," Park said. "In other words, we made the electrons like a traffic jam, ...

... to be, but they don't predict that you have such an extreme, hot big bang, this quantum fluctuation, to start with," he said. Nor would they produce gravity waves at detectable levels. Carlstrom and ...
